A flood of more and more muslims into the US when the slaughter of collaborators begins.

So, how long after we leave does Iraq offically call for the extermination of Israel?

Glad to see that someone was willing to admit the plain truth, this was a diplomatic failure of the obama administration. After almost three years, he couldn't get the Iraqis to man up to standard terms. His dithering and constant yammering about pulling out cost us the credibility required to counter the Iranian influence.

After all this, we give away a strategic advantage in the region with nothing in exchange. The Iraqis have unceremoniously thrown us out and deprived us of a vital intel and security asset.

Zakarias anti Americanism was very amusing to CNN during the bush years. It’s beginning to try their patience as he mocks Dear Leader.

“I don’t want to pray 5 times a day to some “insane allah”.”

Which ME nation is big and bad enough to invade this country and force you to pray to a fake “god” 5 times a day?

Why?

He’s right. I just wish he weren’t so happy about it.

Yes, he is right. One of the only times I have heard him say something that is logical. Maybe he heard this from his good friend at the White House.

Newt Gingrich just said the same thing in Iowa. He said that we are going to lose the “3rd Iraq war” because of our premature withdrawl and because Iran will take Iraq over.

I visited the base in early Nov 92...just about the time Clinton was elected. Stayed in a B&B nearby and checked out some restaurants in K-town. It seems like a nice area to work. In 1998/1999 I working in Frankfurt am Main doing some Y2K work for Lufthansa. Frankfurt has more of that big city feel, but fairly modern given the need to rebuild after WWII.

Yesterday the MSM was spinning this as a big foreign policy “Win” for Obama. Yet, basically the Iraqis are telling us to GTFO no residual military presence. It does seem like a ripe target for an expansive Iran.

We call it a failure; they call it a win. When you put this complete withdrawal from Iraq together with Ubama's repeated refusal to intervene in Syria (Iran puppet) and Iran on the verge of nuclear weaponry which they fully intend to use on Israel and ...???....a clear picture emerges. It has always been about The Agenda.
