<<The Iraqi people need to step up to the plate here and finger the bad guys with more regularity.....if they do not, the situation will become untenable....>>

Bushies say this is being done. Lefties say no. Problem is is that iraqi people dont really like us even though they need us now. US should put its cards on the table and set a timeline for withdrawl. Iraqis will welcome this and then it will be up to the iraqi govt to make itself strong enough to beat back the insurgents and establish credibility along the way. US is part of the problem and the solution at the same time. Pick a date, make it believable to the natives and let the natives work with a deadline like i just fininshed doing today at my job. Just got my last proposal out the door at 5:20edt, just 20 minutes late. Not bad actually and I am kind of proud, much like the iraqis will be when they win this thing without UNCLE.
