Why we can and should leave Iraq NOW:

It's primarily a police (law and order) task now in Iraq. Soldiers and merceneries typically are not good police. The many crimes committed by the mercenaries and yes even the soldiers was a direct result of using "military force" to watch and protect itself from civilians. Iraq has no military, for the most part it has been civilians who want the "occupiers" out who have been fighting. And yes there is civilian killing civilian becasue law and order has broken down. Iraq has been the wildwest with MILITARY OCCUPIERS being the heavy handed ones since the invasion/occupation started. Tanks, missles, fighter jets against small arms and home made bombs... That is what would happen in ANY country including the US if the US were ever to be OCCUPIED MILITARILY. The occupiers had all the MIGHT. It contributed to all the problems. A police force made up of UN personnel and Iraqi police could handle the situation and handle it MUCH better than US soldiers and mercenaries. We could have the soldiers all home within 3 months. We must have the will to do this and stop listening to the major media and their lies telling the people in the US "Oh we (the US MILITARY) can't leave now." We can and we should leave now. Help put more of the people of Iraq to work. They need JOBS. That was one of the biggest problems: The US Military Strategy put so many Iraqi's OUT of work. No wonder there has been so much civil unrest! It was a strategy that ensured the violence would esculate and continue. The strategy created enemies to the occupation. A MILITARY STRATEGY is a lousy strategy when a strategy to rebuild a culture/economy/society is what is NEEDED.
