I Hope Bush is Proud of What He Did in Iraq!

from JoeUser Forums



Today as we all give thanks for our great country we see the results of what George W. Bush has done by invading Iraq. I hope Bush, as he sits down for his Thanksgiving dinner, looks at what he has done. His insistence of invading Iraq has set the stage for what is the worst single attack in Iraq. In a single attack today there are150 Dead and 250 injured. In October over 3,700 Iraqi people dead and over 100 American Military were killed.

Anyone that agrees with Bush that we are winning in Iraq is on another planet. We can not stop the civil war in Iraq and it is time to leave and allow the people of Iraq to deal with this violence. The only thing our continued presence will do is cost more American lives and injuries with no impact on the killing that will take place in this civil war we have enabled to develop.

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Parliament voted unanimously Tuesday to extend Iraq's state of emergency for 30 more days, and suspected Sunni insurgents set off bombs that killed eight people and wounded 40 across the country.

Lawmakers decided to continue the state of emergency that allows for a nighttime curfew and gives the government extra powers to make arrests without warrants and launch police and military operations.

And just "why" should you care? It's not like it's happening here at home. The US is also "not" doing it, the current Iraqi government is.

It shows that the Bush policy in Iraq is a total failure and the continued occupation by American Forces is a error!

The article says the three countries intend to remove their troops from Iraq. That is what George calls CUT and RUN!

You obviously don't understand what cut and run is.

Sorry but your view on this is that of a moron. Bushes policies have NOTHING to do with the IRAQI'S governmental decisions!

I do understand that when a plan does not work you do not just continue with what is not working!

The Iraqi government is a direct result of the Bush Invasion and policy. That government is a failure. Today with the pull out of al Sadar, Maliki no longer is in control and Bush is meeting with a non- leader of Iraq. The "Unity Government" that Bush Touts as the result of his policy is a failure and can not function much less stop the ever increasing violence! You and Bush are the MORONS!!!!

Without a majority, Maliki has NO POWER.

The meeting was postponed and I wonder if it will take place. If Maliki meets with Bush he looses. If he does not meet with Bush he looses.

Looks like two losers to me!

Looks like "YOU'RE" the looser fool. The Iraqi's are the ones who called off the meeting, not us!

What does that have to do with the fact Maliki no longer has a working government? The meeting did finally take place but it will not mean a thing so far as ending the violence. Now Bush wants to increase our training of Iraqi troops. The 300,000 we have trained are in many cases ineffective. So we will train some more that will most likely be ineffective and this is the Bush Plan to fix what he broke in Iraq. What a LAME, arrogant and dangerous President we have in office.

AMMAN, Jordan (AP) - President Bush's high-profile meeting with Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki on Wednesday was canceled in a stunning turn of events after disclosure of U.S. doubts about the Iraqi leader's capabilities and a political boycott in Baghdad protesting his attendance.

Instead of two days of talks, Bush and al-Maliki will have breakfast and a single meeting followed by a news conference on Thursday morning, the White House said.

The abrupt cancellation was an almost unheard-of development in the high-level diplomatic circles of a U.S. president, a king and a prime minister. There was confusion - and conflicting explanations - about what happened.

Bush had been scheduled to meet in a three-way session with al-Maliki and Jordan's King Abdullah II on Wednesday night, and had rearranged his schedule to be in Amman for both days for talks aimed at reducing the spiral of violence in Iraq.

The last-minute cancellation was not announced until Bush had already come to Raghadan Palace and posed for photographs alone with the king.


The 300,000 we have trained are in many cases ineffective


And you know this to be a fact, how?

You are WRONG! I saw the joint news conference on TV this morning after Bush and Maliki met. That is where Bush said he would speed up the training of Iraqi military.

This is what our military have concluded. Last month Gen Casey requested 8 more Battalions of Iraqi Troops be sent into Bagdad and only 2 arrived. Many Iraqi troops have refused to go into areas where the people are from the same group as the military members. On any one day about 1/3 are on leave and about 1/3 report sick or not fit for duty. Many of the police have been found to part of the people killing Iraqis day after day. Many people are afraid of the Police WE TRAINED. Now some in Iraq are asking WHY they VOTED for this government.

Hey JERK...why don't you go read the "entire" AP story if you so smart. Just an fyi, I DID specify the last meeting. While it's true they did have a meeting today, it was SUPPOSED to last for 2 DAYS not a couple of hours. And "who" changed it? The Iraqi's did, that's who! So now "who's" dumb?

And "my" point is that part of it was CANCELLED!

The issue was that al Sadar did not want al Maliki to meet with Bush and that is why he pulled out of the government. At this point Maliki does not have control of the new Iraqi government and he may in fact not survive as Prime Minister. Now in addition to everything else, the so called "Unity Government" Bush says is so great can not function!
