Still thinking about voting for Obama???

I have asked this same question on a couple other boards and no Obama supporter will answer it. Maybe I will get lucky here.

1. If the US was to retreat from Iraq what, in your opinion, would be the outcome in Iraq?

2. Would that eventual outcome be detrimental or favorable to the security of the US and its foreign based intrests?

I dont agree with Obama on a lot of things, so i dont call myself a full blown supporter. Mainly I'm anti-McCain guy. If there were a canidate that was 1/3 Obama, 1/3 McCain, 1/3 Ron Paul... id support that guy.



1. If the US was to retreat from Iraq what, in your opinion, would be the outcome in Iraq?
My opinion is using the, im not going to say retreat, i'm going to call it reverse occupation. Using the reverse occupation plan of Obama, which is a withdrawel over a 1.5 year period with some special forces behind to help out the Iraqi National Army and Iraqi police. We will see a reduction in violence due to the insurgent's call for no American military in Iraq. While the trained Iraqi National Army and police subdue the areas with militant's whos only goal is killing the other Islamic sect (Sunni vs Shiite) and militant's goals of obtaining power through violence rather than the politcal process. No foreign armies in Iraq will instill a greater sense of sovereignty and pride to the Iraqi people, calling themselves a sovereign nation unhindered by Western leaders telling them what to do. To be considered a nation rather than America's *****, it should be refreshing to them.


2. Would that eventual outcome be detrimental or favorable to the security of the US and its foreign based intrests?
It would be favorable to our security. We will be allowing the American military to do their job and not get side-tracked by Iraq. There are still Al-Qaeda operatatives out there. And it will take highly skilled intelligence agents to keep track of the sleeper cells. And small spec ops operations to take down training camps if any left. Step up Interpol and cooperation between nation's intelligence agencies. And remember you shouldn't use a cannon to kill a fly. I believe we ourselves are propigating anti-american hate by doing what we do... Did the Nazi's call the partisan soldier's of Europe terrorists? If you look at it, they kind of acted like the anti-american insurgents of Iraq (not the sunni vs shiite ones, those guys are insane).

So yes, the outcome will be favorable to our security. As long as we remember to not piss off the world, it will be good.
