Eventually...

Iraq: US raid 'crime' that breaks security pact

BAGHDAD – Iraq's prime minister denounced a deadly U.S. raid on Sunday as a "crime" that violated the security pact with Washington and demanded American commanders hand over those responsible to face possible trial in Iraqi courts.

Eventually the U.S. will simply leave Iraq.
Yes - all sorts of bad things are likely to happen when we leave.
So what?

Recall: Nixon, after promising "peace with honor" in Vietnam, eventually simply withdrew (the policy was completed under Ford).
Yes - bad things happened.
BUT - now, 35 years later, Communist Vietnam is one of our trading partners!

WHY WAIT?
We did our job: we 'liberated' Iraq.
Leave it to the Iraqis to re-build their country!
Again: yes - bad things may happen.
BUT - WE WON'T BE THERE! - Iraq will no longer be a drain on our military & our budget.

Have a nice day.
