The main American goal was the removal of Saddam's administration from power, and it has been achieved. That's a puerile oversimplification... If the Iraqi people fail to form a civilized, stable country following Saddam's removal it's going to be their loss more than any other group of people's loss. I am not sure where you've been, but the "latest" of the post (no WMDs there) reality policy and ever morphing bush goals is democracy throughout the region (and world). You can complain and criticize and sound off all you want, but the US has very little to lose by leaving Iraq at the moment, so you should be careful what you wish for. Actually, like the other complainers, you haven't really made your recommendation. What do you think the coalition troops should do now? Unfortunately I see no other option but to continue to build up Iraqi forces and hope they can eventually contain and steer their unfortunate miserable country. If we leave now, I believe we'll have to deal with the mess later under more dire circumnstances. Al
