I think its dumb, the Iraqi's want to blow eachother up thats fine, but we shouldn't waste our time, resources, and men their.
These groups in Iraq have been fighting eachother for a long time, maybe even hundreds, possibly thousands of years, Saddam was evil and killed millions, but he kept them in check, now that the big bad Daddie is dead, the Children will fight eachother.
I think we need to pull out. Most of our casualties are from suicide bombers, we've taken pretty minimal casualties in actual firefights, so its not like our troops failed, its just that Bush sucks.
However I still support our troops and am completely pro Military, I want to join the Marines myself and my dad wad in the MArines for 4 years and loved it, I even grew up around Camp Lajoune when I was a baby until I was 4.
Also, this war can't be for oil, we've already spent way too much on the war itself to make any money off it, and most of the oil comes from Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Canada, and South America, and of course Alaska.
So what do you think???

As much as I agree with you, I also realize the solution isn't as simple as just bringing our troops home.
The Bush administration has put this country in a very sticky situation. Namely, if we pull out of Iraq now, what will stop Iran from gaining influence in the country? Surely you don't want that do you?
