You are oblivious, I feel. Rather than comment beyond your set line, you pretend there is nothing that has been said. You fail to compute the difference between your opinion and that of others. Both need be based in well known evidence, and that you pretend there is no such evidence backing another opinion is your glaring failure. Truth is, right now when over 60% of Americans are against immediate withdrawal from Iraq, both the reasons behind this majority and the satisfaction of the likely bulk of the other 40%, lies in concern for American Security (witness the recent Dubai situation) and a desire for a free Iraq.

Americans are concerned about security, and welcome the notion of stopping the bad guys. Americans see that our action in Iraq is and was aimed squarely at stopping the bad guys. You fail to understand this major force behind American opinion. Indeed, those we fight in Iraq continue to behave exactly like the duck we wish and are justified, to shoot at (this duck shoots first, and at the very face of freedom).

You believe either that there is no value in, or that there is no possibility of, putting Iraq into a free and Democratic order. Just a small minority will agree as freedom in Iraq continues to be embraced by its people (by the nature of freedom and free trade indeed).
