Their convoy's exit marked the end of a bitterly divisive war that raged for nearly nine years and left Iraq shattered, with troubling questions lingering over whether the Arab nation will remain a steadfast U.S. ally. Quoting: Anti-GLP Effect [link to news.yahoo.com] some are coming home later, thru Syria. |

Im glad but its not like he had the USA citizens on his mind. It was all about him wanting to win in 2012. Quoting: me 4622784 which Obama wants to win in 2012? There have been several. Thread: Obama HEAD scars/ the multiple Obami. You don't choose your president anyway, committee of 300 does and then a big show is played out. remember when McCain seemed to be getting ahead, and they put in Sarah Palin? he was out, obama was in. how much MONEY do these dog and pony shows cost to convince folks they have a representative government and a free press and so on and so forth. YOu do not. And if the shows on tv don't work, they tweak the votes. You do not choose who represents you, not truly. You have not one clue what true representative government is. |

It's a way for all of the candidates to get a chance of raking in contribution dollars, tax free income. Hillary and the likes, McCain, even Ron Paul does this year after year. NEVER GIVE MONEY TO A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE. |

NEVER GIVE MONEY TO A PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE. those candidates are not "voluntary". committee of 300 chooses them, and they get paid handsomely for the role playing. Cain was one such, and that is why he was not so sad at all to step down. He will be comfortable for a long time. I won't ever vote for ron paul unless he goes completely independent and tells some more truth. Right now, he is a bit dirty too. |

Tawandaaaa User ID: 1328412 United States 12/18/2011 11:25 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | No way are they pulling them out just to have them sit at home. Had this discussion with a friend not too long ago and he agreed (special forces). He had an idea where they would eventually be sent, but wouldn't say. I do know he has spent some time in Libya lately as well as Somalia, so something is brewing in those areas. Would suit me fine if they kept them at home and just put all of them on the border for a few years. |

EX Soldier User ID: 1465382 United States 12/18/2011 12:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have a personal theory on this. I believe that these troops were sent to the middle east for reason of profit, weapons testing and most importantly dehuminzation. Like they do pitbulls when they throw a harmless poodle in between two of them to see how fast they will kill it. I think this huge fighting force was built in the ME to bring HERE.....dehuminization complete. They have also been high;y trained in urban warfare, or house to house "policing"... Those of you who believe impoverished cave dwellers kept our armed forces at bay with some homemade bombs and poorly made machine guns, welll you get what you have coming to you. |

YOU CAN'T. Unless you are willing to take out some civilians to get the target in the middle (which was intentionally put there by the enemy). This enemy will use children as human shields, knowing full well that if a western enemy is willing to attack, global condemnation erupts EVERY TIME. This is a PR war, not a military war. |

"touch my family and i will kill YOU"..... get slapped over the head... and dragged off to never be seen again as a "suspect of terror", and a family forever in poverty for someone elses oil.. nice one....... not saying all is well and equal in the world but CUMMON!!!
