I'm all for people from the UK addressing what's going on in Iraq with regards to this. But they aren't. It would be great if the forum members from the UK talked about what's going on in their country as a result of this, or maybe how their citizens view their administration and the politics that have gone into backing Bush in this war.

Yes, you would think that would be the obvious gist of the discussion.

Maybe he'll get the idea and start pulling US troops out. Either that or he'll call for more troops to make up for it. 😘

Call me a cynic, but I think it might be a question of, 'You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours!' There's a lot goin' on in British politics at the moment, and TB is about as popular as a *ur* in a swimming pool there. He could walk barefoot across hot coals and the British public would still not give him last night's Echo after they'd read it! No, if Tony Blair shook a voter's hand, they'd count their fingers afterward! They'll certainly look for the underhand alternative for the reason of why he's pulling the troops out now!

Well said.

.

And I would venture that those Brits (who've been there close to 4 years) want to go home now that they've secured their area and handed over power to Iraqi's.

20,000 of "our countrymen" are fresh (or at least fresher) than the Brits and they are going to secure Bahgdad.

And as it's been said, "As baghdad goes, so goes Iraq."

The tide is slowly turning.

The new offensive is going to work, wait til end of summer and you'll see.

Fact: Iraq and terrorism are worse than they have ever been. 😐

The war is the biggest **** up in history.

think this might have something to do with Prince Harry being deployed to Iraq?
Random bump, but I think it's funny how so many people are bitching about it - yet a lot of people always say the people who are running countries and are "at the top" never fight their own battles.
