    I wouldnt say get the hell out of there . in fact i would say get the fuck out of there !!! if the Iraqis wanna have a sactarian civil wars .. then let it be, at least they have the choice to decide … and if that happened then one day they will stop after they know for a fact that fighting isnt the best way to solve things !!!

    maybe what i said is a bit extreme or harsh….. so please excuse me for saying all that, Im just going throught a very rough day :)

    Bashar, as much as I think the US needs to get out — and never ever should have gone in — there’s a part of me that says, “you can’t cause a civil war and then walk away.” Now, I don’t think that anything the US is doing is helping, but walking away only says to the world, “Hi. We’re the US. We go in and ruin people’s countries. Then leave.” Not a great message to reinforce. Not that I have any great answers for a solution….

    Dear Bashar, if the americans decided to pull out the whole world is going to point at the americans n say ” u ruined it, u fix it” or atleast try! Americans dont know the historical , cultural or religious factors that lead to the sunni/shiite conflict but they sitll have to stay there to secure the region and work with the iraqs to establish good powerful police force.
    I agree with you that the iraqis need to solve their own probs but hey, 4 years ago Iraq was at peace!

    Dear Liora, I agree with you! Thank you very much. As much as I want the Americans to stop intervening in the Middle east and in the world as a whole. They keep doing that lol:) The US govt intends to export democracy to all nations but most of the time, it doesnt work so they end up messing things up.
    I think the US should stick to humanitarian aid :)
