9. I think you are asking to be killed
Edited on Thu Apr-15-04 11:48 PM by nothingshocksmeanymo
I also think Iraqi's built their infrastructure the first time around and can rebuild it themselves. I don't think your intentions are poor, nor do I think EVERY American who chooses to go over there is doing so as a mercinary or for poor reasons.

That said, they have a pretty intelligent population. It isn't as though Saddam scrimped on education. Their jobs should be left for them. One year after the war, people want to work and people want to eat and people want us out.

If you do go, I will wish you the best and hope for your safe return, but I think they would just as soon we get out and give them the freedom we claimed we would.
