Maybe his fellow officers don't agree with him? I have spent time serving in the military, and I have some good friends that are still serving. Some in Iraq, and some stateside. Some of them don't agree with the SPECIFIC reason cited in the current administration, but do feel that this allows them to do some good things in a country that can use some help. I don't always agree with everything said in the current administration myself, but would sign back up in a second if given the oportunity. Not everything that is going on over there is bad, there is some good in what is being done. remember that even though the leaders of our country make the initial orders, doesn't mean that those IN country can't use us being there to help those in need. Many Iraqi people get much needed help in getting better farming equipment, helping to develop good irrigation practices, and help in drilling new wells for fresh, clean water. They are recieving medical attention that they wouldn't have had under the prior controling body.
Should we work on an exit strategy? Possibly. Depending on what is going on with Iraq being able to control their own country against the insurgents who want to take over. They need help ....It's not exactly peaches and cream over there!
