If you are going to serve your country go for it.

You're not going to Iraq in May. Stop trying to make yourself look bigger by pretending to be in the military.

You're damned if you do and damned if you don't. You can't stay or withdraw from Iraq without consequences.
We really haven't been in the war all that long, but it will be long if we keep trying to change their politics. Democracy will not be implemented in a country that has never ever had an inch of freedom. The whole reason why it works in America was because we were the rebel Brits who gave the finger to Britain and created our own system. You have to strive for democracy. Fight tooth and nail for it. America fighting for them, trying to train Iraq is moronic. They have to implement it themselves, not have us baby sit their government.

Yeah, it's true you can't force democracy on a country like that. There are too many classic examples of countries we've democratized that ended up with another brute dictator doing the same things. (I'll be honest, I was never really for the war to begin with >.>)

What's important now is making a decision on what to do now that we've spent so much time there.

Your not going to Iraq... Stop trolling saying you are. What we should be doing is focusing on Pakistan and Afghanistan not Iraq.

I really don't know how long we'll be in Iraq. I know that its impossible to pull an army out of a country you invaded just on a whim. And I definitely know that it can't be done within Obama's term. But iduno, now there is more reason and need to stay since Obama closed Guantanimo Bay and let all the terrorists there go free.

Who are you to say that he is not in the Military? My brother is going to join the Air Force, he is taking flying lessons right now. He has been flying Cessna 152s. Do you believe me?

He means that its obvious that hes lying. I'm not saying that I do or do not believe that hes really going the Iraq, but someone who was really going to get deported to war isn't going to act like that (trying to point it out to people).

Yeah I understand what you are saying, but people are different. We all are going to have different reactions to being sent to war. We aren't all going to show that we are worried. People hide it. Some people act all pumped and ready to go, some people wont talk much, some wont eat, some people may show no emotions to it at all, so you cannot say someone is not doing something because of how they act.

2 years until the military is out. My lifetime until the last advisor is out. We'll probably be spilling dollars into that hellhole for a long time to come.
