"We will leave when they ask us to leave"

[kentuck]

Who is "they"???

[gratuitous]

1. Maybe the message is getting lost in translation . . . or delivery

You know, when you tape a message to an RPG, it tends not to survive impact. But for someone who's paying attention, it certainly seems to say "Get out now."

Which, naturally, explains why Stupidhead hasn't figured it out yet. Maybe they should print it on the side of a whiskey bottle?

4. That's What I Was Thinking

Unless the US Army thinks an AK-47 is a wedding invitation there.

2. And I'm Marie of Roumania n/t

3. This was ignored by our media. Sistani said months ago that he expected

the US to leave after June 30.

5. So "they" have, in essence, ultimate authority of our military and mission

If they decide when we leave, then they should also be able to decide what we do while we're there, doesn't it follow?

What are our goals there? What will our troops be doing? Or is that up to "them" too?

I thought the right would never allow any foreign control of our military.

Am I just missing something, again?
