I don't think the President needs these suggestions. He's not planning on maintaining the status quo anyway. My guess is that he'll set up permanent military installations along the Irani border, far from the Iraqi civilian population, and he'll let the Iraqis run their own country after the election in January.

Well reasoned, but I see us remaining in the main bases we've established.

It's interesting, though, that the NY Times concocts this imaginary scenario where conservatives are about to jump ship. I don't think it's going to happen.

Neither do I, -- nor do most rational Freepers.

"I do not believe in the fiction of the "moderate Muslim" any more than I believe in unicorns."

Then you don't know any Muslims. Of course, you have a right to your opinion but I suggest you get out and try to meet a few before rounding up the posse and grabbing a rope.

Those who believe the answer to terrorism is to go to war with ALL Muslims ALL across the world are not thinking it through. I would add that most of not all of them are also not serving in the military that would have to spill it's blood to see this happen. IMHO, those who advocate global jihad against Muslims are advocating a death factory for our soldiers.

Learn to control your emotions.
I am not anti-war.

I've met plenty of Muslims. They're nice and friendly in the individual, and murderous in the majority. You may not share my view now, but eventually you will, of that I am completely confident. I once held your view, yet the endless savagery of Islam and the complete silence of the so-called "moderates" persuaded me to reassess.

Dream on that you can win their hearts & minds, spur.

I'm not a friend of Nordquist's faction.

Does it keep you up at night bob?

Amusing reply in more ways than one.

[tpaine]

Whatever.

When we see some logic from you, everyone will stop in wonder.

[sinkspur]

These barbarians are sitting on a strategic piece of real estate, and I see no reason whatsoever why they cannot be compelled to leave it if a great power has the capacity to make them do so.

Because great powers do not chase people out of their countries.

Yours is the dumbest, most anti-American post I've read all day. And, the competition is fierce.

[tpaine]

You have an apt name.

If you'd like to be on this middle east/political ping list, please FR mail me.

[bluebunny]

I was for the war initially but have cooled considerably. I hope some of these old-school conservatives can overcome the neocons. We need to get out of Iraq totally by the end of this year. I'm sick of the mess.
