it's not an insult at all. it's a hope that maybe Bush will realize that his Iraq into Switzerland dream is folly and we'll concentrate on killing and and doing whats neccessary. not doing nothing while Iran and Syria laugh in our faces, while Sadr's thugs blow us up and we go on patrol day after day like sitting ducks.

It's difficult for me to debate or converse with a person who refers to President Bush as "Bush"...in THIS forum.

(from another thread)
It appears that you like others here don't seem to understand the why, how, and time frame of Iraq.

Why To establish a freely elected liberal government in Iraq. To provide an alternative to the dicatatorships that exist, or the jihadist ideology. You will recall that shortly after 9-11 the usual suspects started barking Root Causes Root Causes Root causes, of course by that they meant it's all our fault, but the President actually looked at what has being said by those in the area, one of their major complaints was lack of freedom. So he decided to address this....hence OIF. We didn't go in there just to kill a bunch of ragheads.

How to give the Iraqi people shot at freedom, and at this point given the history and culture they're not doing too bad. Now you may disagree but if you go to the Iraqi blogs & the milblogs you'll see a different story than the one we see everyday in the DBM.

Time Frame How many times has the Persident and others dsaid this is a generational war? You think they're kidding? They're not. As I've said before this is the cold war and it's 1952.
