When our government ponies up and admits we were wrong to go there in the first place, which will be in what 3 years when George leaves.

The violence will end when the United States leaves and the Iraqi's create a constitutional government that doesnt encourage factionalism and centralizes the oil profits.

The U.S. forces leaving Iraq isn't going to stop the violence or even slow it for that matter. Theres an ancient feud going on between different sects and it's never going to stop unless a government is set up that makes a compromise to satisfy all warring parties. It's true there wasn't as much of this before the U.S. invasion, the invasion brought anarchy as well as chaos, but now that the U.S. has crushed the old system it has to finish what it started, for the U.S. to leave right now would just leave that area chaotic and helpless. Bush should of left them alone in the first place, they had more peace with Saddam in control.

The U.S. isn't the cause of the violence and chaos, the U.S. just broke the levee thats all. Now that they fucked with it they gotta build a new and even better dam, it's your obligation to finish what you started.

Not any time soon....

A couple days ago I had to attend a "rally" with guest speaker Dick Cheney up here at Ft. Drum and that old faggot basically said America ain't leaving Iraq any time soon.

His whole hour long speach continued to constantly go back to the fact that American ain't leaving until the "terrorists" are all gone and all that other propaganda to hype up the troops.

nah, you trippin. If you've noticed, more and more Iraqis are being killed as opposed to US soldiers. After the US leaves, the Iraqis and those from outside of Iraq will continue to fight. Also, the Iraqis will continue to fight amongst themselves.

I just came back from there literally like yesterday on leave from the Army after 10 months. I'd have to say it's lookin promising on the downward curb of insurgency violence. It went from when I first got there and the Iraqi Police and the Iraqi Army always fighting each other to when I left and they were working together on different missions trying to catch the insurgents. And since one of them is made up mostly of Kurds and the other is basically Sunni I'd have to say that is a hell of a major step in seeing some damn stablization.

Here's a lil fact for yall also. Did you know that when I first got out there our interperator told me that most of the people planting bombs were the poorass average joe in iraq with 6 kids. Not shocking? Well... he also said that the reason they were shooting U.S. troops is because other terrorist organizations would go to the poor communities that were all bombed to shit and where you couldn't get a job cuz the rival tribes inside the city were killing each other and blowing up each other's shops and businesses right when they opened. And they would pay the poorass iraqi joe $350 for every RPG he shot at the Americans. I mean what are you gonna do if your starvin and your kids are starvin and there ain't no money nowhere and everytime you try and open up a business a rival tribe comes and smashes that shit cuz they don't want you to get the upper hand, or I should say let you get on your feet before they do, cuz hatred and racism has run so deep in everyone's blood that all the Iraqis do is kill each other while the terrorist organizations are sitting back and laughin? So we started forcing the tribes to work together and trained mostly on trying to find the terrorists who would come in and start a bunch of bullshit. And slowly but surely the shops started to reopen, the city started gettin rebuilt, and we started gettin shot and bombed less and mothafuckin less.

It's kinda crazy how in the beginning a couple people came in to Iraq and the middle east took the religion of Islam split it into so many different rules and tribes that nobody could agree on shit and raped the blind stupid while they collected the profits. Sound "Saddamish" to anybody? If it doesn't you should go over there for a year like I did and talk to the people. It might change your perspective. That mothafucker should be shot dead for what he did to those people. And I do agree with us being over there cuz the Iraqi people had been oppressed for so long that they had almost forgotten how to fight. And I don't give a fuck what anybody thinks who ain't been there cuz I spent the past year of my life fighting with bullets and my mouthpiece to free the Iraqi people and put that country back on it's feet.

Oh yeah, and there's no mothafuckin place like home. I love America! I missed the shit outta this place!

One factor that gets glossed over is the low-level civil war inside Iraq.

Politicians and army members are organizing death squads on both sides that are taking "revenge killings" on Sunni or Shiia civilians.
