1. I don't know
but I think that they are damaging our credibility. It would be great if we could pull out tomorrow, but that would leave Iraq worse than it was when we got there. We have a moral duty to fix it, unfortunately this administration has no clue how to do so.

2. 1/3 of their new government has asked us to leave
they said they don't need a babysitter. If we leave, the Iraqis, who have a 50% unemployment rate, can get jobs rebuilding their country, instead of the money and jobs going to Halliburton.

They can sell their own oil to raise the money for rebuilding. There would be far fewer terrorist attacks if we left, and the national pride at the completion of each new school, hospital, or building would be tremendous.

They need water and electricity more than they need us there to provoke the insurgency.
