No, I don't suggest we pull out after pulverizing the country, we have no choice but to finish the job, but we shouldn't have gone in there to begin with. We dug ourselves a deep hole, and now we must try and get out, Bush did not have an exit plan and now we are in a fucked up situation. And most of these "terrorists" you mention are not even Iraqi, most are from bordering countries that came in once Bush decided to attack Iraq.

When Clinton pulled our troops out of Mogadishu, he gave Bin Laden's fight more cause than Osama Bin Laden could have ever hoped for. Bin Laden referred to our troops as "paper tigers," all growl and no bite. We must show strength, we must take the fight to them instead of allowing them to bring the fight to us as they did on 9/11.

Why are we taking the "fight" to Iraq? What on Earth did they have to do with 9/11? Afghanistan was understandable, but Iraq? They didn't bring the fight on 9/11, Bin Laden did, not Saddam. So we aren't taking this "fight" anywhere but into some innocent family’s backyard.

We must hunt them down wherever they are and cut them from the population like the cancer that they are. Like it or not, but the Bush doctrine has proven to be successful in that there have been no terrorist attacks on US soil since 9/11.

That is not saying much. People seem to forget that 9/11 happened under Bush's watch. Never in American history have we had a terrorist attack on US soil on the magnitude of 9/11, thanks to Bush ignoring the threats. Just because there have not been any attacks since the largest one in US history, does not mean anything. More attacks have been promised, and you can be sure they will be delivered if Bush remains in office, possibly even greater than 9/11.

If we fall back, if we show weakness, then they will pounce on us and then there will be suicide bombings at the local Starbucks.

If we want to fight, we better fight the right group.
