Baghdad Bombings Kill At Least 60

Will President Obama's inelegant handling of the exit strategy be held against him in November, 2010? On the "Today Show" the main stream media was already making excuses for him. I fully expect conditions in Iraq to degenerate steadily with increased sectarian violence and further Iranian interference. It is a horrible situation we should never have been involved with.

They will go right back to doing what they did before we went there, killing each other. Same for Afghanistan.

Iraq was a stable country with a modest but decent standard of living before we engaged in unprovoked aggressive war against it.

Prior to the imposition of UN sanctions Iraq had one of the highest standards of living in the Middle East:

A detailed study by the U.N. and Iraqi officials found that life in Iraq has decayed significantly since U.S-led foreign forces invaded and occupied the country, following a general trend seen in most sectors since the imposition of the genocidal sanctions in 1990. Iraqi civilians, mostly children, have suffered the consequences of this criminal tragedy...

Iraq had one of the best national health-care systems in the Middle East. For example, Saudi Arabia with all her petrodollar earnings had just a fraction of that of Iraq’s. Iraq boasted a modern social infrastructure with a first-class range of health-care facilities, and the Iraqi people enjoyed one of the highest standards of living in the Middle East...

Oh 1990...I thought you were talking about 03...even so that isn't saying much. That's right up there with the highest standards of living in east Africa....they still live in mud huts and wallow in their own trash/sewage all day.

Yes. Bad, bad Obama for deciding to involve us. :rolleyes:

President Obama clearly inherited an awful situation. But, I think he had an obligation to manage it as best he could. The man was in a "no-win" situation. I just want to know, in your opinion, are we going to hold him responsible for the chaoss that follows our troop's withdrawal? In my opinion, he will own a degree of responsibility. And I'm sure his political opponents are going to use the situation in Iraq against him.

He won the war and lost the peace.

The Donald was right. We should have kept the oil fields.

Nahhh. Makes too much sense.
