General Casey says we need more troops.

[betazed]

I guess I can't really prove this to you, as we're talking about future actions. Time will tell, I suppose, and history will judge out actions.

as it surely will.

The reason I am not optimistic that history will be kind to this US invasion is because of, well, history itself.

Historically speaking how many aggresors do we see in a kind light?

That question shows your position well: I wouldn't say the US is the aggressor in this situation. Regardless, we'll see how it all turns out. I'm confident, though, that it will turn out alright in the end, even if it's a long and bloody road to that end.

No offense to you personally, but I think you're pretty naive. I'm glad we didn't have people like you at the helm during WWII.

And you're fooling yourself if you actually think that Iraq is anything like World War II.

Certainly the comparisons to VietNam are far more valid...

I'm glad we didn't have people like you at the helm of Germany in WWII.




Wait a sec......

And that comparison makes you seem naiive.

Iraq is NOTHING like Vietnam, save for the fact that the opposition uses nonconventional warfare.

 

[Norlamand]

No, but with a better plan it might.

Surrender is not much of a plan, but when you only have a hammer, all the world is a nail.............

Sadr should meet with an untimely death...............perhaps then his followers would be inclined to listen to Ali Sistani.

 

[Cannae]

Democrats also suck.

Spineless, blubbering weeners.

In other words, low-calorie republicanism.

Well name calling gets nothing done. If you realy want to bash the Democrats atually talk about their polocies instead of name calling them

When did you become such a troll Noncon? Have I just not seen it all this time, or did someone key your car and get you all pissy at everyone?

An ironic choice of words for a man who would likely, if given the chance, drive Israel into the sea.

I don't believe I've ever participated in a thread about Israle.
In any case, "driving them into the sea" is a gross overstatement.
Giving them a pleasure beach is much more down my street

Eh, it comes and goes.
At this moment, it's probably coming more thamn going.
