the killing fields are our urban areas.

Our urban areas are the strongholds of the Democrats.

So where do we go with that interesting piece of info??

Meanwhile 332 people murdered in the democrat cesspool of philadelphia in 2008.

Endless Bush/America bashing, non stop worldwide MSM coverage of that all last year, right?

This tells me that the job is done, and that the US should declare the job done and come on home.

There is nothing to be gained at this point that cannot be gained by US air power + the ground forces of the Iraqi government.

So liberails are celebrating that the murders in Philadelphia are at 332 in 2008 which is still higher than all our fallen heroes who were killed in Iraq in all of 2008?

My greatest fear is that the Iranian terrorist regime will sense weakness in Obama and starts causing troubles in Iraq through their Mahdi Army terrorists. They will try to unleash a civil war yet again and then Obama will withdraw all our troops completely from Iraq. Al Qaeda terrorists will return to Iraq because the Sunnis will shelter them in order to fight the Shia and their terrorists. Iraq will fall and the region will follow and then we will have disasters that are worst than our worse nightmares

Maliki wants to remain in power. I assume he will continue to clear and hold cities against any al qaeda or insurgent or mahdi military. If he does not, then he will NOT maintain power.

That means that he’ll keep his army strong and under his control.

US air power combined with a decent ground force means that Maliki can not lose on any challenge to his authority. Total air dominance is not easy to fight against, and it makes a ground force nigh onto impossible to stop.

That is essentially what is already happening. We won.
Didn't you hear all about our victory from the Democrat "mainstream" newsrooms?
