Why do you believe these things? Unfortunately, it couldn't have been helped. No matter what we did, the potential for this to occur was there and could not have been prevented. Don't you think there should have been a well prepared program in place designed to prevent the current situation in Iraq from occurring, as opposed to what the Bush administration implemented following the fall of Saddam? and 2- it may continue for decades unless checked I suppose that's possible, but based on the numbers of people who are involved in it it doesn't seem likely. I think we'll likely step up the level of violence we use against it, and I suspect that will solve it. Uh huh. You probably would have said the same thing 6 months ago, and have been wrong, right? The fact is most of the country is secure. Again, why do you believe this? And if its true, why isn't the current administration putting all these secure provinces on TV every day to convince the population in the few unsecure provinces that there is a better life awaiting them? Any idea? I don't think the American people want to see 50,000 coalition casualties and 1 million Iraqi "terrorist/civilian/who really knows" casualties over the next decade. Oh, crap. Here we go again. You sound like a liberal. Just stating the facts. If the current situation is going to continue for ten years (which is not out of the question) do you think those ten years have the support of the US public? I don't. Your idea that everything will get better in the next 3-4 months sounds great, and I hope you are right. But, at which month do you throw in the towel and say you were wrong? Go ahead and give a # of months and I'll remind you when that time comes. Or are you also in favor of indefinite presence of coalition troops in a country that may not want them? Elroy
