But that's what were doing elsewhere in the world. South Korea, for example. We've had troops stationed there for decades, we aren't wanted by either side, and the government isn't showing any signs of pulling out soon.
President Roh Moo Hyun, from last weekend:
"The South Korea-U.S. alliance was precious, is now still precious and will continue to be important in the future."
Leftist Western leaders always run on a platform of anti-Americanism, then 'change their minds' after the election. Do you think that, should we try to leave, South Korea wouldn't raise h#ll?
As long as we keep a few troops in the Middle East, Saddam probably won't go anywhere, and fewer of them will die than if a war started. Another benefit to this strategy is that the Middle Eastern economy doesn't get destroyed, which will almost certainly happen if we do go to war. And, our the U.S. doesn't have to worry about coming up with money for the war.
Sanctions forever! Down with Iraqi babies!
