| Comrade Tovya said:Why would Europe turn tail and run from terror ravaged Iraq just to jump right back into a terror zone that is 10 times worse? |
I take umbrage with that statement. With the possible exception of Spain, "turn tail and run" is an unfitting and denigrating description of how European members of the coalition performed in Iraq. Many withdrew in the past month or so because the UN mandate ended on 12/31/08. A few nations, the UK and Romania to be specific, still have a substantial number of troops in Iraq.
