If thats what the Iraqi people want, thats what they will get. You know the whole democracy thing.

Oh damn wait I thought the US was the "Evil Imperialist Oppressors"

See, Obama was wrong, we could not win in Iraq containing the Butcher of Baghdad claiming he was performing the function of a ‘cork in the bottle’ in the Persian Gulf containing the power of Iran untilhe falls away into the dustbin of history of old age retirement, but we did win in Iraq without Obama:

"'The Americans have found it difficult to agree on a concrete timetable for the exit because it seems like an admission of defeat to them. But it isn't,' Maliki told Der Spiegel."

Isn't Democracy grand, and better than the tyranny and lukewarm "liberal" arts of war of Peace for Greed and Oil for Food supported by inhuman EU and Democratic Party Monsters?

"If you wanted to keep Saddam in power to suppress the scary Shiites, you have probably exceeded the limits and violated some verse of the Koran. Have a nice day!" (08-11-05, 01:00 PM (Just tell me what you think.))

Yeah, a wall and a border patrol will protect us. {sound of laughter}

You are joking about the bolded statement, right? I mean, just this week the administration basically ignored the Iraqi president and created a whole new term to justify that disregard. We are still behaving like EIO's from anything I can see.

Shoot me the link. I haven't seen this story.

Isn't it their country and haven't we been told all along we would leave when they want us to?

Well they're telling us.

U.S., Iraq to set time horizon on troop cuts | Reuters

President George W. Bush and Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki have agreed to set a "time horizon" for reducing U.S. forces in Iraq, despite Bush's long opposition to deadlines for troop withdrawals.

In the closest the Bush administration has come to acknowledging the need for a timeframe for U.S. troop cuts, the White House said on Friday that U.S. and Iraqi negotiators would seek "aspirational goals" for withdrawals.<snip>

Let us set a timetable, a really fast one. If the IRaqis want it, they will get it, and the possible bloodbath that comes with it.

Seems that it should be their choice not ours.
