Iraqi insurgents make a plan
Fallujah, Iraq - Suspected insurgents in this restive Sunni city were seen handing out leaflets to locals on Saturday detailing a plan to take over Iraqi cities "once US-led troops leave".

The leaflet said the United States is preparing to withdraw its "defeated forces from Iraq" and sought to "clarify the agenda of the Mujahedeen for the period following the withdrawal of the occupant".

It said the insurgents will control the entries to cities that are evacuated by the forces, adding that a total curfew will be imposed during the first three days following their withdrawal.

1. More evidence that sooner or later, civil war is going to break
out in Iraq.

2. It also tells me that those that collaborated with the US
better leave the country when the US pulls out or face the consequences.

3. What to do to prevent slaughter?
OK, Bush is going to pull our troops out come hell or high water, as he feels its what he needs to do to win reelection.

What do we (and the Dem Pres candidates) need to do to prevent the ensuing civil war and slaughter?

Can Bush be prosecuted for war crimes if he pulls out and the country spirals into civil war and bloodshed?

5. Worse than Viet Nam
After US forces evacuated from Viet Nam, many people expected a Communist bloodbath would follow.

It never materialized.

We all know what will happen after the US withdraws from I-raq...

How will BushCo explain this away????
