Bush's Legacy
A new opinion poll reports public support for the war in Iraq has fallen to a new low. Only 31 percent of voters favor the war in Iraq.
Our troops in Iraq have been overextended. We sent them into Iraq with inadequate equipment, and have sent some units back as many as five times. Our military doesn’t have an achievable mission. We have already tried sending more troops into Baghdad to quell the sectarian violence, but things have gotten worse. We must redeploy our troops out of Iraq, because they’ve done everything asked of them.
The mission hasn’t been defined and it's not getting better. When, we leave there'll be some instability, but Iraqis will have to deal with the civil war themselves. Al Qaeda represents only about a thousand enemy combatants and the Iraqis are more than capable of dealing with them on their own.
Our militarily has lost the war in Iraq, because it can no longer be won militarily. Bush’s new defense secretary, Robert Gates claims that failure in Iraq: "would be a calamity." They insist that if our troops were pulled out, it would be considered a military defeat and would be a horrible signal to the rest of the region. Pulling out of Iraq should be seen as a victory for America voters, who have seen enough of the politics of fear.
The Bush regime falsely claimed an al Qaeda connection and weapons of mass destruction. They claimed the goal was to topple Saddam Hussein and spread democracy, but that was never the mission. The reason, we went into Iraq, and not Cuba, was they have oil. Propagandist are again attempting to deceive Americans. We are expected to value the judgment of the same unaccountable political leadership, that got us into Iraq.
Our military can not stop this civil war, because if we ever had an opportunity to stabilize Iraq we’ve missed it. America’s best interests will be served by getting our troops fully redeployed out of Iraq as soon as possible.
