    The insurgents not on the US payroll are the bad guys, but that should change over time a few more times.


    ....but the surge is definitely working...you just have to pay millions out to the opposing civilians aka "terrorists" to keep them happy. It's like a terrorist bubble. Number or combatants in 2003: 5000 number in 2008: 70,000

    It's definitely working!

    nothing is new in iraq. the mission was accomplished 5 years ago and we have been babysitting their army and police since then.

    i will speculate what is going to be new though....al sadr is going to declare an end to the cease fire and all hell is going to break loose and our troops are going to be caught in the middle of it. what happens after that is anybody's guess....

    ...
    Al sadr will not end his cease fire until we stop giving him our tax dollars to continue the cease fire.
    Consider it... your tax dollars at work.

    then why is al sadr's mahdi army fighting in basra. sounds like an end to a cease fire to me.

    Because we just bombed the shit out of Tikrit and killed more innocent women and children. I guess that's new?
