FALLUJAH, Iraq — Hundreds of Iraqis set alight U.S. and Israeli flags on Wednesday as they celebrated the impending pullout of American forces from the country in the former insurgent bastion of Fallujah. Shouting slogans in support of the “resistance,” the demonstrators held up banners and placards inscribed with phrases like, “Now we are free” and “Fallujah is the flame of the resistance.” Surrounded by the Iraqi army, demonstrators carried posters bearing photos of apparent insurgents, faces covered and carrying weapons. They also held up pictures of U.S. soldiers killed and military vehicles destroyed in the two major offensives against the city in 2004.

That is a stupid statement. Wake up!
Odd, there were no Israeli soldiers in Iraq.
No matter, if a third time is needed for Fallujah, don't waste blood and sweat, just nuke it (dial a low yield of course).

Bush made a terrible mistake and Obama continued on with it.
Taking out Hussein was a good idea. Sticking around and WASTING American lives and American money in trying to drag these 6th century savages into the modern world was a big mistake. And we are doing the SAME THING in Afghanistan.
Muslims are savages. Ungrateful, intolerant, violent savages. Islam is NOT a “peaceful” religion - its a death cult full of hate and ingratitude.
These people are not ready for democracy. Each and every one of the Arab Spring governments, generated by that fool Bush’s and that other fool Obama’s foreing policies will degenerate from a pro-western (sort of) military dictatorship, to an anti-western theocratic dictatorship.
Ask those damned fools Bush II and Obama if they are happy with their delusions now. My guess is Bush II is regretting it and Obama is quite happy with things as they turned out.
Hmmm...well, I wonder if they’d have been able to have a similar gathering to mock Saddam?
Probably not. For as much as this turns my stomach, they are actually exercising the freedom we gave them. It’s more ironic than anything that they can now do this (in the way they’re expressing themselves).

Nobody is better at killing than we are! Ireland thought they were fighting a “war” and those posers couldn’t even match the death rate of an average American city - what war were we supposedly fighting?
An American male of fighting age is safer in Iraq or Afghanistan than in the average urban American city.
Nobody kills like we do! Nobody!

Drop a Koran atop the blaze. That'll put it out. No oxygen escapes from that black hole of a book.

I don't think their C/O would have his U.S. troops anywhere near such a happy gathering. Iraqi troops have very similar uniforms now. However, that one sure looks like he's got an Airborne patch.
It is not at all short sighted, not in the least. Their agenda has not changed for centuries and it hasn’t changed now. As long as they adhere to the Koran,Muhammed, and their Imams the environment for hatred of all which is not Islam is not going to change.... The goal is for the world to be Islamic and that agenda continues be it here in the US via Stealth Jihad, or overseas....it’s that simple. Any of them who say otherwise are lying....
No...they are expressing themselves as they have done for centuries...nothings changed at all in that respect. It is and will remain hatred for Israel and the US.
What matters to them is only the comfort level of daily life where they can obtain more materially, otherwise there's no difference in the mindset..and never will be until they denounce Islam and their Koran and their Prohet and Iamams....there simply isn't any other way.
Let freedom reign...
GW Bush
Sounds like even OWS is doing better.
If we aren’t willing to truly conquer a people, and sit on them for a generation or two and really change their culture, then we need to stop at going in for a punitive expedition and getting the heck out. No more nation building for unreconstructed savages.

No, but they held just as many US flag-burnings when Saddam was in power. Therefore, I see little difference.
Well, that was certainly worth bankrupting our economy for.
I even wonder about that. After Gulf War I Saddam was too weak to threaten his neighbors, but he was a counterbalance to Iran. Now that counterbalance is gone.
The Iraqi people certainly suffered under Saddam. But their suffering was also great in the chaos after Gulf War II. And it's not nearly over yet. I fear a civil war will break out in Iraq after we leave.
