The truth is that our troops are contributing to the violence and chaos. If we were to put more troops there, then there would be an increase in the violence and chaos. The problem is not the Sunnis and the Shiites. We are the problem. The sooner we leave, the sooner the violence will end.

Our invasion has already caused over half a million people to die. The longer we stay, the higher that figure will become. We need to leave immediately and let the Iraqi people handle their own affairs.

What are you affraid of? You think if we leave all of a sudden there will be anarchy?? Well, incase you haven't noticed, there is anarchy now. Our troops are doing nothing to keep order. Our troops are simply staying away from the violent areas and occasionally going in and fighting battles with insurgents. For the most part, our troops are sitting ducks for whoever wants to try to attack them. They are serving no useful purpose there except for increasing hatred for America.
