55. You DO realize this WON'T end up working out, right?
The Iraqis want us GONE, yesterday. Considering the collective punishment being meted out in Fallujah, and the deliberate targeting of women, children, the elderly, and ambulances, they have every right to be demanding our withdrawal - by force, if necessary.

The occupation is illegal. This will not work out in any way that the U.S. government expects or plans it to. This is another Viet Nam, and we will either leave willingly or be forced out.

The war is wrong. If Kerry supported the short-term use of force only to disarm Hussein - as many claim - then he should realize that is no longer an issue, because there are no WMD, Hussein is now a prisoner - why are we still there?

Either he continues to support an occupation that is illegal under international law, or he doesn't. Which is it?
