...Encouraged behind and in front of all doors circa 2003.

...be written?? Anyone who has read the news in the past four years could have written this. Thanks for the update...

A disaster in lost and maimed American lives and in the end nothing of substance will show for it a year from now.

By such withdrawal at this point in time when the Ayatollahs are feverishly working on their nukes, it will only facilitate and accelerate the Ayatollahs' domination of the region. It shows the idiocy of Obama and Panetta. It is only endangering America's national security interests in the region. Obama's Youtube declaration of "I am a Muslim" offers a clue. It is time Congress impeaches him for endangering America and Israel.

I was born in the UK lived in LA for 15 years and several other countries too. I have lived in Israel for almost 10 years. If you were referring to me, then time to up the medication ;-) But you hopefully just made a mistake.

you would probably blame the Jews for world war 1, world war 2, the holocaust and viet namn and for your miserable unhappy failed life. have a good day!

and the US will be sucked even deeper into it once and for all. God bless America and all those who sail in her.

Anything bad happened in the world is "Bush's fault" that's is the reflexive war cry of the Left. As for the word "neocon", that's is the Leftist code word for "bad" Jews like Wolfowitz as opposite to the "good" ones like Soros, Jstreet, T. Friedman and assorted Obamabot Jews.

The U.S. accomplished its goals in Iraq and left that country to itself. Every country needs to be left to itself sooner or later. Iraq under Saddam defended itself well enough against the Iranians for many years and can do it again. Of course, Sunni Saddam fought the Shiiate Iranians while now it seems like Iraqi Shiiates will need to manage against their religious cohorts from Iran. But they can do it since Iran is more noise than substance. While it is unclear how it will all develop, it is great the U.S. is out and no longer policing Iraq. It suffices to know U.S. is not a police country internationally. Obama is gaining accolades and counting it toward his reelection next year.

be careful when using the term ''neocon'' because it is code for ''Jew''. Why ? Because the neoconservative movement/philosophy is predominantly a Jewish one founded and led by Jews who were once leftist/Trotskyites. Most of the ''neocons'' advocating for the Iraq war were indeed Jewish. But one should be careful when using the term ''neocon'' because in America it is commonly used by antisemites as a code word for ''Jewish''.

Israel did not whole hartedly pushed for the war. It was American neoconservatives who felt the war was Israel best interest. There philosophy does not reflect the values on which USA was founded. How to root them out of power who knows how. Its too late now perhap

The American invasion of Iraq was an unprovoked aggression. There should be war crimes trials for many of the Americans involved in this crime. The Germans are still berated by some people for WW2 but since then America has caused far more death and destruction all over the planet.

tinderbox is just weeks away.

One only has to read the policy paper written for Bibi Netanyahu in 1996 when was prime minister by the very same Jewish neo-cons that later worked for George Bush and Dick Cheney. The name of the policy paper is " A Clean Break, A New Strategy for Securing the Realm". Google it. or Google "Office of Special Plans" or the names of Richard Pearle, Paul Wolfowitz, Elliot Abrams, Richard Ladeen to name a few. These neo-cons were pushing for war with Iraq as soon as 911 happened. Afghanistan was a side show to them. The goal was to destabilise Syria by first defeating Iraq and killing Sadam Hussein. One down and Syria is the next goal. Another goal was to reduce the influence of the USA in Israeli foreign policy by reducing the money your government takes from the USA. No chance of that every happening is there?

Consult your Rofeh Aynayim, for a checkup, #27 was addressed to Mark of Lewiston

NOW AT LAST IT IS UP TO THE IRAQI PEOPLE IN IRAQ. THAT ALSO GOES FOR THE IRANIAN PEOPLE IN IRAN. THE US-ADMINISTRATION IN THAT FACT IN PRINCIPLE ALSO HAS TO MIND IT''S OWN AMERICAN NATIONAL INTERNAL DOMESTIC BUSINESS WITH IT''S OWN AMERICAN PEOPLE WITHIN IT''S OWN AMERICAN TERRITORY. EVERY COUNTRY/PEOPLE WITH A UNO-MEMBERSHIP CAN CONSULT THE ENTIRE UNITED NATIONS ORGANIZATION IF NEEDED.

freedom, instead they chose civil war.what has been learned here? give them all guns and let them kill one another.bushs' intentions were good ,but he didn't realize that you can't bring civility to uncivilzed "people". it's not possible

If you believe that then why are you here? You can always go somewhere else.

The "goal" is only in your mind. You have a great imagination.

"since [WW2] America has caused far more death and destruction all over the planet." 1. Prove your statement with figures. 2. State what falls under your definition of "has caused...death". 3. Answer and you'll show your true colors.

the neocons responsible for this war were almost all Jewish, the hated ''bankers'' on Wall Street are mostly Jews, the US media and entertainment industry is owned almost entirely by Jews. This is a disaster for ordinary American Jews. The antisemitism boiling away under the surface in America is palpable and will explode anytime now. All that is needed is for the accusation of ''antisemite'' to lose its power to silence. If US Jews don't act soon to put their own house in order then it will be done for them in the ugliest possible way by antisemites. Please wake up and smell the coffee.

The project for a New American Century may still be running; I don't know. Maybe this was the Neocon plan. Maybe not. Cheney, Rice and Bolton called this the "birth pangs of a new Middle East;" they wrote large parts of the Neocon Plan. The End of the War and the withdrawal is 12 days earlier than the Bush-Cheney schedule.

American got involved because Iraq invaded Kuwait, threatening the oil supply While you're mentioning all those Jewish names, you should have included our Nobel Prize winners, who per capita outrank all the Non-Jews in receiving the prizex

Iraq invaded Kuwait threatening a major source of oil, killing many Kuwaiti's in the process America went in,got rid of the threat and saved quite a few Kuwaitii's while doing it

Since you're so concerned with death and destruction, take a peek at the following website, it shows how much of it being down by your brothers www.thereligionofpeace.com It includes statistics, where and one, and some lovely photos of what you destroyed & mutilated innocent people

If you paste the fdollowing text into google you will find the source ...''As US troops were being withdrawn, Nixon stepped up the use of US air and naval power. From 1969 to the end of 1971, the US had dropped 3.3 million tons of bombs on South Vietnam, North Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, more than Johnson had dropped in five years and more than the US had dropped on Europe and the Pacific in World War II.''

This whole thread is hashbara put forth the leftists; - we got it: Iraq was a bad war, "neocons" (The Jews!) but the Libyan war by the EU and Obamao is so good that nobody says a word about it. It happened only in the last month and forgotten already. Saddam was "not so bad" after all but Ghadafy was the Satan himself. Sure, my foot. Saddam never complied with UN-US demand, PAID $$$ 25.000 to the Pali terrorist family...Kuwait etc. It's all forgotten now. What is the agenda of this fake thread?

Because their priority is to reelect their Kenyan demigod and to destroy Israel via Soros-N.Y.Times-Obamao: the only safe haven for them when the ground starts getting too hot under their feet. They are blind and deaf: their leftist agenda guides them to hell under the leadership of Obamao, "The One".
