The troops desperately need to and want to come home NOW.
Quit trying to get more US troops killed by lying about the war. This war needs to end. It was a terrible mistgake and blatant lie to begin with and it's literally getting worse by the day. Just look at the casualty figures, even though most of our troops don't tread more than 200 yards from their barracks.

And yes, Zarqawi has been an exaggerated scapegoat, maybe even a construct. The Bushies always pump up these scapegoats we're supposed to be terrified of. Osama (who Bush no longers cares about but who did actually help plan 9-11), Saddam (who Bushies said would bomb us with nukes if we don't go to war) and then Zarqawi (who first had one leg, then two, then became The Flash and supposedly beheaded a guy though the tape looks very doctored and "Zarqawi" wears a gold Rolex which Islamics would never do). Anad now it's the Mexicans.

Get real. We have no idea who the enemy is in Iraq, we're in the middle of a civil war where we have no business being, and Zarqawi, thoug possibly alive and evil, plays a very small part in it all. In fact the Bush PR machine is what pumped him up to begin with.

So if Zarqawi is the thing to fear, why not just kill him?
