Your question is based on a false premise.

How about the real question:

Now that Saddam Hussein is DEAD: do you believe the Federal Government should:

(A) abandon those people of Iraq who put their trust in the USA (e.g., the Kurds) and our promises of support, such that no other people would EVER trust the USA again and (B) surrrender the people and oilfields of Iraq to the terrorists state of Iran, so as to help Iran dominate the Middle East, have more money to build nuclear weapons, and create an unstable venue and a bunch of desperate people for terrorists to exploit who will eventually come to the USA and kill us?

Yes, or No?

Those people voted convicted Islamic Terrorists guilty of murdering hundreds of US Marines into Ruling Government office, such that Iraqi oilfields are NOW under the control of Iranian-backed Islamic Terrorists.

"Democracies" which vote Terrorists into Power are unworthy of US support.

So, having answered your question, you answer mine:

YES, or NO?

I'm getting confused. Who are our enemies, the secular Ba'athists who hate both Iran and the Saudi Wahhabists, or the Islamic fundamentalist Shi'ite majority, who are Iranian allies? The Bush administration rode into this war with staunch Iranian ally Ahmed Chalabi, and after deposing the Saddam regime, handed power to the Shi'ites. It now seems that policy is coming back to bite them.

The solution would appear to be allowing Kurdistan to complete its secession process and installing a Sunni Ba'athist strongman in Baghdad to keep a lid on the Shia and be a counterweight to Iranian attempts to dominate the region. Unfortunately, the best candidate for the job was recently executed.

It is a complicated matter, and putting more boots on the ground to kick in doors and play roadside bomb-lottery is one-dimensional thinking.

Yes those are the right questions.

Ron Paul would abandon the many Iraqis like this one;

Do you agree, yes or no?

OrthodoxPresbyterian, watch the clip before you answer and then explain how you can say yes.
