1. Nine soldiers have been killed in the last few days............
all the technology in the world is not going to stop a determined bomber or sniper.

3. The US Occupation of Iraq will last for many years.
If the Iraqi people en mass demanded that the US Troops & Mercs leave & the Sunnis, Shiites & Kurds
overwhelmingly in the Iraqi Govt. demanded it maybe the US would leave. I doubt that will ever happen.
If the number of US Troops skyrocketed to 100 or more a month maybe then but that is not likely.


The Repug & Dem Leaders want to maintain the US Occupation for at least another 4 years, maybe longer.
They want to keep the Fiasco going to finalize that Oil Deal.. The Repugs & Dems are afraid that they will be blamed if they force the end of the US Occupation and Iraq goes down the tubes, the Oil goes to other countries, & Iran gains major control in the ME.
