Murtha has lost all credibility. If we had listened to that fool, we have no idea if the Iraqis would have even formed a government by now, and we would have not killed Zarqawi and recovered all that intel from his safe house.
1. Possible, but that's the chance we take. They have to want a free and peaceful country. The north and south will be fine, it's the center that could become bloody. 2. Al Qaeda in Iraq is SOL. They can still do damage, just like they can almost anywhere, but the Iraqi people are now largely sick and tired of them, as the captured documents indicate. 3. Iran has no reason to invade a friendly, Shiite-run country. No one else in that neighboorhood is going to do shit because they realize the price paid would be way too high. No one is going to forget what happened to Saddam, basically as an extended result of his invasion of Kuwait. On 6/16/06, Gruss wrote: There are 2 HIGH > probabilities: > > 1.)
