DA! What military progress? I thought it was for a political progress.
It has been fragile and will continue to be fragile, as long as the Iraq's can't create a government that works for all of the Iraq's. And they won't. They have to many divisions between their religious/tribal differences. That was been a problem within the middle east for 2000 years+.
They (the Iraq's) continue to attempt to reverse it themselves as this weeks attacks on the green zone that has killed even more of our hero's, putting the death toll over 4000+ dead. How may have to die for Bush's lies?
And we are not going to solve it, nor is our brave soldiers lives of any value to the Iraq's.
Our military has preformed bravely and with honor, it is to bad that the president that got us into this war isn't as honorable as those brave soldiers he seem not to care about, only to give lip service to, when it suits him, as he did this week in honoring some fallen hero's. He thinks that honoring them, he will be seen as a hero, but it is sad we have a president that isn't someone I would want our children to look up to! Bush is no hero.
It is my hope that congress will take it on themselves to push for an independent investigation on crime's and or high crimes even after Bush leaves office. I hope we take it on our selves to do this before the world court does it for us.
General Petraeus' needs to be replaced and hopefully we can get a General in there that isn't just a yes man and works hard to get our hero's out of a situation that they could die for nothing more then Bush's lies. We may have to look at one that retired because he disagreed with the Bush administration and was forced out.
The problem is, there is going to have to be a heavy handed leader take power, much like the one we removed, to control Iraq and settle the differences, in much the same way Saddam did, for there to be peace once more in that country. And the leaders of all the different sects, are hoping that they win and end up being the one to control the country. But for it to work, they will have to commit as much genocide as Saddam did against the Kurds and others to control.
So as long as we are there we will be a target and they will not settle anything. And as soon as we withdraw, a complete civil war will break out. We can't win for losing, in Iraq, so we are better off admitting that our president was wrong, and with draw.
I would suggest that we invite the other Arab countries around Iraq to put together a multi national Arab force together under the UN and deploy them as we poll our troops out. If they can't settle their differences allow Iraq to be divided into three regions. Place any oil funds in trust that comes from the sale of oil from Iraq with the UN and divide it equally between the three regions.
OK, I have grumbled and ranted enough.
Blessings,
