"break our word and abandon our Iraqi allies."
Cheney and his herd sell the Iraqi people short. Cheney would have us believe that the Shia and Sunni will let Al Queda walk right in and take over, even though there are over 25 million Iraqis. This defies logic! I have never seen a reporter refer to this argument. Don't reporters think?

I really would love if the press would verify the type of comments these guys use with the word BLOOD. Blood strikes a deep cord. Mr Cheney, are you saying that we must stay the course no matter the amount of blood spilled? :patriot:

1. what Iraqui allies ?
a bunch of suckers put in charge for their personal profit. When the US leaves they are going to move abroad, since it's the safest for them. And you can't blame the other Shiites or the Kurds to try to take advantage (for their own profit political or religious or both) of the situation.

The old comparison with Germany or Japan is irrelevant : different people, different political agendas and above all different occupiers...

2. More like "why don't we BUTT OUT of our Iraqi allies' business"
We wouldn't be ABANDONING them -- we'd be getting out of their way and letting them sort out their problems by themselves, the way REAL DEMOCRACIES do.
