You don't think Americans being killed and maimed every damned day isn't a
mess?
If we turn our backs on it and walk away, then every one of them will have
been
for nothing.....so, we have to hang in there until we can get some sort of
democratically elected Iraqi government to take over running the country.

In the meanwhile, I think I read somewhere that someone said that the
entire
country was an arsenal full of guns and ammunition, and that we may have
picked
up half or two thirds of them. What's left is still killing our guys.

You can call that whatever you want. I call it a mess, because I don't
see any
way out any time soon that isn't going to continue to kill and main
American
troops each and every day that we're there.


You expected a war without death?
