So, what are we supposed to make the most of? What would you consider “winning”? And if you really are concerned with the deaths and the money, than you would know the best thing is to get out now. But if you would like to use the argument that we will be safer if we stay there for a 100 more years…. Don’t you think you would be more mad if somebody was holding a gun outside your door, watching your every move, and threatening never to leave. We are just in Iraq to save our name. But is saving our name worth a single United States Troop? They would like us more if we pulled out. Al qaeda wasn’t even in Iraq before we got there…

Ha! Those commercials are meant to show that since the woman lost her men in Iraq, why would she want to see them die for nothing? At this point in the war, lets make the most of it and keep on. Maybe it was a mistake in the beginning, that isn’t the issue anymore. The issue is whether to pull out or not. My opinion, why would we put so much money and lives into just to make it not worth anything? Statistics show that while the terrism is more likely during war, after war is WON it will be ended, not if we just pull out. If we pull out we will always have it lingering in the back of our minds that we could have a terrorist attack at any time. By finishing the war, we will feel safer. Iraq is only going to feel like we are weaker if we pull out so they are only going to feel stronger. In this case, terrorist attacks will only grow if we pull out, because they will feel like they have already overcome us and we are afraid of them. Okay, you want to ask me if I understand that the attacks aren’t coming from Iraq? yes- that was a mistake. We should have obviosly gone into Saudi Arabia, but don’t you think that now Iraq is going to be pissed! No kidding! That’s not going to stop them from coming in! Lets finish the war and let it be done.
