Our coalition continues to weaken as foreign casualties rise and the concept of security is only a meager state of mind.
We are certainly going to be in a sad state of affairs if the only troops that will replace ours are Iraqi citizens. I'd bet that there is a sizable majority of rebels that used to serve in the real Iraqi army that was conveniently disbanded with the fall of Bahgdad.
Flipping through the cable channels the other day, I was shocked to hear one Republican commentator when he said that if everything got really bad we could just protect the oil wells. We would certainly have enough troops for that he reasoned. Now that really is blood for oil isn't it?
May be Chevron and company could foot all the medical bills for the wounded?
