Note that ABC was just reporting the results of a poll. The poll was jointly sponsored by USA Today, the BBC, and ARD German TV.

But they also have a chance for something much worse, like rule by tyrranical, aggressive, Sunni fundamentalists.

They should let the military commanders there make the decisions so we can get out as soon as possible but not leave the place in shambles in doing so. I don't agree at all with the notion that immediate pullout is required no matter what the consequences may be. There's too much of politicians getting involved with military strategy/directives/whatever. *coughVIETNAMcough* |
I don't disagree with this. Given that we have broken Iraq, I certainly see why we have a responsibility for fixing it.
