Default Re: Iraq : The Logic Of Disengagement

It doesn't seem like a worse idea then just leaving. What will result from our just leaving is probably worse then what will result from putting Saddam back. Clearly the country is worse off now then before the war, so why not just set everything back where it was.

We couldn't even be blamed for what he might do, as we are simply admitting our error in deposing him in the first place. We are doing what everyone wished we did from the very beginning. If some new dictator springs up they would blame his actions on our war, this way we can just say that we set everything the way it was.

In a perserve irony, I think the Iraqis deserve Saddam after all this. If they really preferred the way thigns were then let them get what they want.
