do u seriosuly want american soldiers to die in vain? if we withdraw, other terrorist groups will rise against america, because they think they can defeat us. wut did we do in WW2? we stayed there until the tide shifted so we could retain our pride. the economy? its bush's fault. i wish we never started the war, but we shouldnt end it until we do this the american way. iraq is different from vietnam because the leaders in iraq that are holding power are going to start a major oil crisis, which will affect the world faster than we think
