If the majority of Iraqis want democracy, and are
funded and
trained by US experts, then why do they need our soldiers?
We can pay to have those Iraqis who want to spill their own blood for democracy flown over here and trained.
There is no need at this point, over 4 years since the demise of Saddam's regime to excuse the Iraqi people from
their responsibility.
This is the problem with the right wingers, their ego suggests that we are responsible for their democracy, but if the majority of Iraqi people want their own democracy, then we can help, but not make it happen.
Imagine a child, who is 4 years old, who refuses to walk, or because every time he tried to walk, he fell down and the parents smothered him with "love" to keep him from ever falling down again.
No, enough is enough. This is not about the US, this is about the Iraqi people deciding how much blood to spill for their own democracy.
See, most of us are spoiled here. Most of us have never had to risk our lives for our own democracy...and that includes most living vets. Our democracy would have continued without our presence in all wars since WWII, and it is debatable that our democracy would not have continued if we stayed out of that war.
So we pay no price for our democracy, like those who actually earned it by fighting the British.
Oh sure, we pay taxes, and bitch the hell about it...but we pay no real price, so we don't really value it. That is why we let politicians trample all over our democracy in the name of "freedom."
It is a joke. A tragic joke.
Leave Iraq now. Fund those who want a democracy, okay.
But no more spilling of American blood for a democracy that is not our own.
Quote from fhl:
Ever hear of sowing and reaping? It would behoove you to learn about it, and fast.
Your time is coming for your country, and don't expect to receive the help you scorn to give.
Talk about denial, you libs deny that there is a majority in Iraq that want to live in a democracy. Just because the minority is very loud, that's all you need to come to your perverse conclusions. That conclusion being that the whole country is adverse to the U.S. and doesn't want anything but a mucked-up pseudo state. And, that the U.S. is attempting to "force" democracy upon them.
When one doesn't have a firm foundation on right and wrong, anything that pops up, like a suicide bomber, a big demonstration/rally, whatever your senses perceive, determines for you the right and wrong of it. This makes peace at any price a priority to you people. The french in ww2, Chamberlain in your country, and now you and your fellow libs see "danger, danger", and respond accordingly. Give the perps what they want.
Well, when the perps take it to you, where you live, I repeat once again, don't expect help. You don't want to give it, you won't get it. In other words, live with it, bro.
