At the very least, Israel wants the US in Iraq in order to guarantee Israel's ability to overfly Iraq on its way to bomb Iran (should the Israelis fail to get us to do it for them, of course). If Obama tried to get us out of Iraq quick and clean, Israel's minions could probably arrange a little "trip to Dallas" for Obama - and it would be so easy to blame it on disgruntled goyish racists, wouldn't it?

Question: Why was the Dutch-born Iraqi insurgent/roadside bomber sentenced to 25 yrs in a US Federal prison..1. Why isn't he in a POW camp/prison in Iraq since he is a POW...because 2. Don't you have the right to resist if your country's being occupied...If my country was being occupied you're damn right I would be an insurgent..I wouldn't be a Quisling..I wouldn't stand next to the man who decimated my country and shake his hand... Seeing people so easily bought-off or intimidated is probably what's turning me into a misanthrope..

Please ask Porter in the next interview. I would like to be able to understand Iraq from the generals POV. Why does the military want to leave a large residual force in Iraq?
