Re: Is it time to pull British troops out of Iraq?
No way, we should have never gone in in the first place, such a needless loss of life on all sides but now we are there, we stay. We ****ed the country up even more then under Saddam (or to a greater degree, the Americans) so we stay until it stabilises to a point where its own government can be left to take full control. Yes, there may of been oppression under Saddam and all the pro-war, pro-bush nuts, exclaim the official line that removing him from power was a good alternative to WMD but if we just left now we are leaving the door open for Al-Zakawi and other retards to take advantage of all those who are desperate and have been through dispair and create an equally bad situation as before.
You can't just lay waste to a country then leave, and if you didn't like the scenes yesterday, well to be frank, welcome to war. Its not all fine and dandy for the people with the bigger bombs, people are going to get hurt on all sides. Pictures like those yesterday just stir up emotion like seen here.
If we don't want it turning into the next failure that is Afghanistan; a breeding ground for terrorists then we have to stay. With Saddam gone, and our forces gone, it'll be a haven for Al Qaeda. The campaign isn't finished, it isn't finished until there is a working government and working law and order.
