Sounds more like that our job is not yet finished with Iraq - Saudis next....... Where are you going to get the troops from? As it is, the 150K (plus the 10K or so mercenaries bought with our children's money) is not enough. We need another 100K for Saudi Arabia, another 250K for Iran, another 50K for Syria.... Where are you going to get the troops from? And if your answer is "mercenaries" where are you going to get the money from?!

"Is that supposed to be an excuse for Iraq?" >>> Of course not! (It just helps to consider things in their proper historical perspective... especially considering the number of Saudi 9-11 hijackers, and the absence of Iraqi hijackers.) "Sounds more like that our job is not yet finished with Iraq - Saudis next......." >>> Little evidence of that from the way the WH has treated the Saudis with kid gloves (flying them out of the country while all flights were grounded after 9-11, nixing the FBI investigation into Saudi financing of terrorism PRIOR to 9-11, blanking out all the pages in the Intelligence committee's report that even MENTIONED Saudi Arabia, deep financial ties... both for the nation in general, and for the Texas oil scene in particular, even extending to the Gulf financing of Bush's fledgling business startups, etc.)
