Bring our Troops Home Most Americans want our troops home. That is, even if we think that they are protecting our country by fighting in Iraq, we still want our troops home. Only 5% of the 'insurgents' are Al Queda, and the other 95% are Iraqis that can be both Shiite and Sunni. So we could say, 'let them fight it out themselves, and just bring our troops home !'. Considering that many Americans gave their lives, or at a minimum their future health it's not cutting and running to bring our troops home. We know that our losses are greater now than 4,000, and must accept that there are more than 40,000 wounded severely. Their families have also made significant sacrifices. They have lost loved ones or their lives are just on standby while waiting for news. The Smoke and Mirrors of Further Costs The Republicans have a point that in some so called phased withdrawal would make remaining US forces easier targets. The Democrats have a point that there should be a time line for withdrawal. The Republicans have a point 'if and only if' the Shiites and Sunnis are shooting at US troops. The Democrats could have a valid position that is, 'if and only if' we have a real plan for Iraq. The Democrats alternative is just leaving Iraq in the state of civil war. So as far as the Democrats are concerned, they appear to be doing nothing more than just going through the political motions, where Bush can veto them. This is unacceptable in my opinion of how the American Government is to serve the people cost effectively. Being compromised financially to foreign lenders such as China to finance Iraq's occupation, also puts us in a weak position if they decide to address such a global tyrant. We loose any capital in foreign policy proportionally to how much of a tyrant we are. Domestically, our economy will grind to a halt. We are then broke ! Our Pride As Americans Our troops deserve their pride and dignity as Americans. There is no real healing that can take place without one's dignity in tact. We deserve our strategic pride as Americans, where we have not in good conscious gone out and destroyed lives in other parts of the world. Other wise, we have to ask ourselves 'what makes us better than any other global tyrant'? 700,000 Iraqis lost their lives too ! Regardless of the Bush administration being responsible for the Iraq mess, we as Americans are just as responsible. A president that takes office in 2008 cannot just say, "I didn't do that, it?s not my fault, so we are just exiting Iraq". It is also easy to give fuzzy promises as an Election 2008 candidate, but later say that "there were mitigating circumstances where the time is just not right yet". What is most important that as Americans, we have been raised with a conscious of what makes Americans very special. We want to pride ourselves as being the kindest nation. To be Americans we are also accustomed to a very most powerful and undauntable pride. And this is for good reason. Americans no matter what race, creed, color, religion, or followings and beliefs, are over all, decent, fair and moral minded people.
