    Most people in the US believe we were lied into an illegal war and occupation. It's sad that we do not have a major candidate who would end this genocide in Iraq.

      What a BS article to imply training Iraqis will last forever. Heck, if Dumya would have insured the contracts to train Iraqis 5 years ago were followed up on we'd already have trained Iraqi units. The US Military has trained the Iraqis since and done a decent job, a job that should take no more than 2 more years to accomplish! There will always be Marines protectig the embassy like every foreign US embassy!

      I say again what hogshit from this author! I expect the unmilitary type Repugs to eat these lies and deceptions up... as sick anick and unome have!

        Right Wingers, did you forget why Rummy got fired? One reason was his total mismanagement of the Iraq war to include train up of Iraqi units! Like those condemned Iraqis police academy barracks we built, and the military barracks that a Florida company got 32 million to build - but never did! Dems at least require proper DoD procurement procedures - no more sole source, unaudited contracts to incompetent Bush cronies!

          If nothing else, this article at least shows a right winger can think more honestly beyond the erroneous "cut and run" descriptor of the Dems!
