we all know that American troops are still halted in Iraq. Is this a right thing a superpower can do.Election was held and still the American troops did not leave Iraq. What are they doing there and what are they trying to do. What is your opinion on this.

I personally think that America is doing the right thing for a change (though the invasion of Iraq was wrong, there were no WMD, the pretxt that the US used to go there). Look at history, either the US has lost badly (Vietnam), or they have left the countries worse off then they were before the Americans intervened. Maybe for a change, the US will try and do some good in Iraq before they exit. And remeber war repartions will be doled out by countries such as UK, Japan and Australia as in the 1991 war, so the US is mostly contributing blood and muscle might generally. Overall US corporations will benefit and the US economy will not loose, it is the poor soldier of that country and his/her family that will have to bear the loss of life and/or limb. Also, overall the Americans are good people, and the country has done a lot of good for the world. You can't really expect anyone to be right all the time, unless you believe in God-only God can be always right.

I don't know but I wish they would let the American troops come home and people please remember it isn't just ours over there. There are other countries that have troops over there that are loosing lives as well I wish they could all go home. No one is going to stamp out terrorist as long as the hate is born and bread all over the world. As long as people live there will be hate and well ya knwo what that is one of the saddest things to think about.
