allowing al quada to establish a safe haven for training and planning purposes is what led to 9/11 in the first place.
this seals it. we will see another attack, perhaps even more spectacular than 9/11.
Public support for sending US troops to Iraq would be around 10 or 20%.
McCain, Grahamnesty, Bill Kristol, probably Cheney, ....only the neo-con club wants to go through that again.
Now, too busy being an ambassador for global homosexualization than to be concerned about Fallujah.
Not our problem.
Muslims are animals and aren’t deserving of American blood being wasted.
Why would we attack them when they are helping us in Syria? Or vice versa, whatever.
What? Is he now Commander-in-Chief too?
We all knew this would happen. Now Iraq will have to figure it out without us.
There is an old saying that”Afghanistan is the place where big nations go to die.” That is not only true but also includes pretty much all if the Middle East. These tribal nations have no understanding of truly representative government and little or no desire to live within its confines. There has been almost constant war or invasion since 5000 B.C. in most of that region. Who in hell are we to think that sort of history can be reversed? Drill our own oil and tell them to shove theirs back where the sun don’t shine.
Obama’s friends and allies have taken what we gave lives and wealth to capture. Of course we won’t do anything to stop them. Little Obama is probably giddy.
Parsing words? We didn’t initially have any troops in Vietnam. What were they ‘special advisers” or something like that. A Vietnam War hero like Secretary Kerry would know that.
Let the Iraqi tribal leadees take care of bidness this time
Last time, al Qaeda (many of whom are “foreigners” or not connected to the local culture) way overstepped itself, butchered the wrong child, committed other atrocities and pixxed off the local tribal hoi polloi and cultural leaders so bad they finally took things into their own hands and decide to cooperate with the US military.
That’s the only solution
Fallujah either wants to be an extreme islamic sharia hugging haven.... or not. We need to stay OUT OF IT
This is why the terms of the withdrawal represent a complete disaster. A U.S. military presence still in the country could have blown these Al-Qaeda bastards to Kingdom come.
It’s despicable that US policy allowed thousands of our troops to be killed to allow the creation of the must corrupt government on earth.
Per Fox News reporting: The propaganda wing of the white hut just announced that eagle eye drones and hellfire missiles are on the way to Iraq. It’s groundhog day all over again.
I say we take off, nuke the site from orbit. Its the only way to be sure.
Since when is the Secretary of State the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces?
Where does he get off calling the shots on what our military missions are?
Fallujah is home to the al Muthanna chemical weapons site. Which still has chemical weapons in its bunkers that have not yet been destroyed and may be to dangerous to destroy.
