We don't intend on leaving Iraq, ever. That's the bottom line. |

Have we ever left any country once we put boots on the ground? I think we have military bases everywhere.

reported that the US had put the finishing touches on an ultra-hardened high level communications system, capable of supporting audio, visual and digital information. You don't build that type of intrastructure if you don't plan on staying.
