It’s all well and good that both Hillary and Obama say they’re going to draw down, withdraw or remove our troops from Iraq. But we really need to know how. Enough with the nonsense of Rev. Wright and Hillary’s Bosnia trip. Our 160,000 soldiers are now serving as the Iraq state police force. Without them the Shiite’s will more than likely murder the Sunni’s. It’s genocide waiting to happen – just like in Cambodia. It’s just too late to dwell on Bush’s blunder in invading Iraq and removing Saddam. Perhaps they don’t teach it at Yale, but a history professor at the college I attended, said, “sometimes you just have to have friends who are also your enemy.” For every American soldier that gets wounded or killed, I always say to myself, hell must waiting for our (soon to be former) President. But that aside, we’re there and it’s too easy and irresponsible to just say we’re going to leave. Our government screwed up. Colin Powell said, “if we break it, we must fix it.” So how do we fix it? We never had what we now so desperately need – an exit strategy. We need Obama and Hillary to give us one. We need specifics… ** With macabre bureaucratic precision the Khmer Rouge photographed their victims before torturing and killing them. This picture is all that remains of a mother and child murdered in Cambodia sometime between 1975 and 1979. To learn more go to http://www.ppu.org.uk/genocide/g_cambodia1.html
