TotallyOz Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 I believe this war has been a crime against humanity. I do not think we should have entered into it and do believe the American people will suffer for generations because of this horrendous act. How long will it take for the USA to get out of the ungodly war? Quote
Guest MonkeySee Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 I believe this war has been a crime against humanity.

How long will it take for the USA to get out of the ungodly war? I think Obama is taking the "middle of the road" approach and listening to the generals and his many advisors. I think what Bush did in Iraq is horrendous with estimated reports of over 700,000 Iraqi deaths. Now that we have made a mess in the region, I think Obama will be careful not to cause more harm.

Guest GaySacGuy Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 My vote was cast for 16 months as he has suggested. I believe that the attention to the war might no be as quick as we wish, as the Obama administration will have their hands full with a really sick economy for a few months at leaat. Quote

I agree with gaythailand. This war is an abomination. Maybe if we quit spending billions each month on this stupidity we can consecrate on our economy and get back some of our reputation. Quote
Guest laurence Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 I think the US is stuck in the middle east for a long time to come. The war in Iraq has only made conditions worse for the US in that region of the world. As a result the US will be committed to a long term involvement militarily. Quote
Bob Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 I voted for 2 years but with the meaning that US combat operations would likely cease by then. But US troops will be in Iraq in some role for years to come. Quote
Guest Steve1903 Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 I think he'll keep to as near his promise as possible. However I also believe the soldiers will merely go from there over to Afghanistan instead. Quote
