This can't be true... DR says they love us.

Asked about when they wanted U.S. and British forces to leave, 57 percent chose immediately, as in the next few months, the poll said; 36 percent said troops should stay longer.

Thanks TigerPaw for the link to the poll.

Found one item I was very curious about.

The poll shows Iraqis don't want the USA to leave:

"At the time the question was asked, 53 percent said they would feel less safe if the U.S.-led coalition left immediately. About half as many -- 28 percent -- said they would feel more safe. Sixty-nine percent said they or their families would be in danger if they were seen cooperating with the coalition."

Attacking Iraq is something I don't feel we should have done, based upon the information provided.

However, now that the USA is there, it would be unethical to leave before re-establishing an environment of safety and repairing the infrastructure back to its former state - water, electricity, health care.

Regards,
