The troups should absolutly be pulledout, no question about the moral and ethical responsibility of doing so, BUT, the Bush agenda has no desire to do so, they want to set up a permanent military base to continue to be m effective threat against Syria, Iran and The Saudi's. Ouragenda is to keep the oil pumping and out of competing hands of the Chinese. We ultimately want to be able to pressure the entire region with our military force, that was the agenda from the Pax-Americana declaration written and signed (by the Rand corp) by Cheney and Rumsfield long before any of these goons took office.
