Bush can declare victory in Iraq and start bringing the US troops home.

3. If Iraq crushes US military in Iraq, green zone falls, maybe the troops can come home?

AD...seeing the pic in your sig line makes me wonder...why the DUmmies have said nothing about the China crackdown.

You know...REAL oppression and brutlity.

Not the imagined stuff they accuse the U.S. of.

 :censored: you, DUmmy!   :bird:

The fact that DUmmies actually want to see our military defeated says plenty about their so-called support of the troops.  :whatever:

And look at who they are cheering for.  The third rate son of a martyred Cleric who pisses his pants and runs to Iran every time we say "boo!" to him.

Sadr's father WAS an important figure in religious politics in Iraq until he was blown up in his Mosque.  Muqtada is living off of pops coattails.  

Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Husaini al-Sistani is the grand poobah of all things Shiite these days in Iraq.  al-Sadr can't shine his shoes.

Changing "Saddam City" to "Sadr City" and rounding up a bunch of rejects to launch some half-assed attacks isn't going to result in the crushing defeat of the U.S. and Iraqi armies like the DUmmies are hoping for.

Any real threat that al-Sadr might have posed was squashed back in April of 2004 courtesy of 1st Armored Division.

They've given the little twit 3 days to stop this tantrum.  I honestly hope he doesn't.

Who the hell is "Iraq"? In case you haven't been keeping up with current events, Iraq has had a sovereign government for quite some time now, and they're fighting along with us. The raggedy-ass religious nutjobs (whom you claim to hate), terrorists and foreign instigators are the ones fighting against us and the government of Iraq. They are not "Iraq", and if they would simply set down their arms for a while and join the civilized political process, the killing could end completely tonight and there would be no further need for our troops to be there.

That "Iraq" is just a puppet regime put in place by * to hide American atrocities and their complicit involvement in the murder of over 1 million Iraqi's.  The real Iraq is what's standing up to the occupiers. /DU mode

Newsflash, you complete and utter idiot:  IRAQ AND THE IRAQI PEOPLE ARE ON OUR SIDE.

And you're a traitor.
