You people are smoking crack.
You are talking about telling the Iraqi people that we are going to let neighboring Arab countries come in a police Iraq and while doing it get a piece of their pie? Isn't that was they feared all along? These Arab countries may be starting to look nice and Western with our red, white, and blue colored glasses, but rest asured they kill each other as fast as they'd kill a whiteboy. Perhaps not at the moment since we have their attention, but they are in a state of shock still. Their entire country has been waht it has been for over a generation now. YOu say they are going to trust their neighoring Arab brothers, fellow Mecca worshipers, conrads in arms? This is where we should have left well enough alone. THe lies of that administration have wrapped them up so tight in the very webs they have spun.
They wanted to get Saddam out, fine. That's the easy part, right? Just throw down a bunch of bombs and let our boys clean up the mess while the surrounding worlds mouth is agape with "shock and awe", that'll show'em. "After that?, oh SAM but after that!, just to get there!". Personally I think a better idea would have been to assasinate the bastred, but OH no, that's not "allowed"...Bay of Pigs was baaad, that's not "allowed". So sure, bomb the whole fu[b][/b]cking place. I admit, it was a sticky situation. We had to get the man out. HE was crazy! Killing people and everything.. his OWN people even! Well his own people that happened to be another people, another culture, and another language...but OH the madman had murdered his Own people! Wait, he also talked about ....weapons, weapons of MASS murder.. HOw can we as Good Christian Americans stand for this kind of shaking your bigs in your Yankee faces attitude coming from these suntanned, bowing, bearded, 70's clothes wearing barbarians? Guess we did waht we had to do. KaBoom! KaBoom!KaBoom! KaBoom!KaBoom! KaBoom!
So here we are. The populous is hating on us, they're bringing in their crazy buddies in their little(big) "hate on Yankees" Club, and we're in the middle of a ***** storm. Pulling all of our troops out is not an option. We don't want to appear like losers, or cowards. We also don't want the chaos that we have created to be taken advatage of by any of the various warlords..cause that's waht they are. Asking Al Sadr to participate in the political aspect of things was just a frikkin riot. So now we had conveniently set ourselves up as occupiers. I would even go as far as to say "colonists". Other nations helping Is a good idea. Let them replace our poor and battered troops. Give them people that they at least have less hate for. We are acting like this is our little science project, our "baby". Why shouldn't we just say, "Ok, we're gonna take a little break and let you Iraqis handle it for awhile. See that man with the big nostrals and the blue helmet? Go talk to him, he'll treat you right". We need to step aside and let some geopolitical osmosis happen.
Let these elections take place. Let us teach them how to defend themselves and their homes, but let's not do it like a bunch of snobby, condescending, know-it-alls while we're doing it. "Git'on Kicking-Bear, remember what I tell'd ye, go and shoot me some In'juns with the boom-stick and bring me back their scalps and I'll give ya some dis' here whiskey". Our Soldiers are not teachers. Maybe some of them are, but one thing I learned from teaching and watching other teachers is that not everyone can do it properly. It takes a certain ammount of empathy and a certain ammount of humbleness. My thoughts are instead of getting the army so involved is maybe getting some of our Police force out there. Somthing tells me that these Cops here have a bit more knowledge about street warfare than some young buck from Nebraska that just pegged his 12th raghead. Either way, we've got to let these people assume some responsibility. In the process of our delegation of authority we should slowly begin rolling our troops out, and some other foreign troops in; just not as many. Once we're out, waht do we think will happen? If we left Now..jsut Left, waht do you think would happen? THese are the kicks and convulsions of a fully grown newborn country. We are standing in the way trying to hold it down, so it can grow in "our" way. Well it's not gonna be "our" way. They are turning on us now, best o try to stand out of the way and get some fresh doctors in here to help deliver this one.
None of that's gonna happen though. That would be counter productive to "our" own form of growing. The monster that these elite tycoons that are running the place want us to be. Same story as before, it'll have the same ending, and all empires fall.
