10-1 ratio is ambiguous at any rate, we kill 10 iraqis but which Iraqis? We also have changed tactics, fewer and larger US patrols. Didn’t an entire marine company get ambushed last week? 2 dead, 22 injured. Company-sized ambush? Now we clean out the neighborhood looking for the insurgents who have probably moved on. Targeting civilians, incidently, keeps things boiling and helps prevent a government from forming.

Did you miss the entire How do you know the new Islamic Republic of Iraq will be Israel-friendly? Take fingers out of ears, read entire paragraph.

They rolled after 10 years of diplomacy, sanctions and negotiations with Britain. Note: with BRITAIN.

Compared to you DrDoper, I’m the sun to your 20 watts.

See the Kurdish and Iranian chemical weapons attacks. WMD’s can be made in a basement with the right knowledge

10=1 ratio for months, they have the bodies to spend. Iraq had training camps? Moonbeams

so why have they stopped aiming at the US and more at unarmed civilians…seems like they are getting hurt.
See this link for the Camp (Camp Moonbeam in leftist parlance)

Israel is our best allie in the region? Statement without backup
This is the internet equivalent of “nyanyanyanay…I’m not listening!”

See Libya? Why? That was negotiation and diplomacy.
I guess, but they rolled over about a week after we took down saddam, but didn’t budge for about twenty years before that……I guess if you call having a gun to your head “negotiation” your statement would be true……

You aren’t really all that bright are you Piddgy Widdgy?

Your new hero A. Zinni once commented that even if Iraq didn’t have stockpiles of WMD’s, they could start making them in weeks. The point stands

AQ operates with increased freedom? Are you nuts? We have been killing AQ at a 10-1 ratio for months now. Compare that to pre-war where Iraq set up whole terrorist “summer camps” for training….that ain’t happening now.

Israel is our best allie in the region. If it is good for israels security it is good for ours

See Libya.

Sorry had I known there was going to be no actual level of proof required, simply piddgy-widdgy repeating “wrong”, much like a four year old, I wouldn’t have wasted my time…

What regime is more stable? The current one? So WRONG.

Iraq was not pursuing WMDs at the time of invasion and had opened to weapons inspections teams, so WRONG. Furthermore, the invasion of its neighbor has spurred Iran’s WMD ambitions, so SUPER WRONG.

Al Qaeda still operates in Afghanistan with increased freedom since we shifted attention to Iraq, they also operate freely in Iraq, so once again WRONG.

Israel is not the US. So I call Strawman!

See Iran. Genocides still occuring, Bush included despoti- ruled states in his ‘Coalition of the Willing’. What warning? If we agree with the US we get a pass on our human rights violating? So WRONG, again. You got a zero, Doper.

Wrong from the start.

Wrong. Just the opposite in fact.

Not US.

Some warning. They seem undeterred.

A country that can no longer pursue WMDs

No more safe havens for al qaeda and its ilk

No further support of palestinian suicide bombers

A warning to despotic dictators

You flatter yourself….again.

Let me shorten your screed for you: You agree that we are fighting AQ in Iraq.

Now, isn’t that a Good Thing?

Because I’m sure you’ve spent a lot of time perusing my modest ouevre. Second, you’ve left so many players out of the equation to focus entirely on a group that, at best, makes up 20 percent of the violent factions in Iraq, not the least of whom are the Iraqis themselves. Just a few weeks ago didn’t you link to a “brilliant analysis” of the situation that said a rift had formed between the foreign terrorists and the Sunni insurgency thus presaging our ultimate victory? Can’t you even get your stories straight? I’m not saying that al-Qaeda couldn’t or doesn’t want to take advantage of the chaos that we’ve helped to create there but what’s the best they could hope to gain out of it all? We’ve already seen that the war in Iraq has done little to impact al-Qaeda’s international operations. Think Spain, London, Indonesia … And it’s highly doubtful that they will end up in control of Iraq itself, there’s simply too many other players involved. At best they get what they already have now, a lawless section of Iraq from which they can operate.

You’re a one man propoganda machine pedro. A true mushbrain.

Here’s the quote you posted:

“ The Islamic nation must support the heroic mujahedeen (holy warriors) in Iraq, who are fighting on the very front line for the dignity of Islam, al-Zawahri said.

 And to my brother mujahedeen in Iraq, I say, Stay firm. Stay together. Your enemy has begun to falter, so don t stop pursuing him until he flees defeated, he said. “

Now where does al-Zawarhi say that any of the fighters are al Qaeda? Or is it your impression that all Muslims are al Qaeda?

The question I have is: Why is it that AQ thinks that the battle is being fought in Iraq, and Ollie’s Lilly Livered Wannabe Warriors don’t?

Paul, like your movie reviews, you have a poor comprehension of the subject matter here. Go re-read Al Zawahri’s statement.

Sigh. First of all, pedro, the insurgency is and has always been dominated by Iraqis, some 80 percent. So please tell me how al-Qeada wins if we leave?

I mean you keep saying it over and over: If the US leave al-Qeada wins. But how? What do they win?
