Many more people will die if they suddenly pull out.
2-3 'million' were killed in Vietnam when the US left.

There is no civil war.

Persoanly i think the US govt is going to have to admit defeat and pull out of Iraq sooner than later. I don't see them winning this civil war.

Again, there is no civil war.
Plus, why should the US government admit defeat in spite of a surge that has dropped casualties as much as 60%?
Instead of reading about the daily suicide bombings....start looking at the infrastructure progress being made each day.
Even the UN is praising what the Iraqi government has done in the past 6 months.

Meanwhile, the United Nations also took note of progress in Iraq last week. U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon gave his report to the U.N. Security Council, calling "the reduction in the overall number of attacks reported across Iraq a welcome development."

No doubt.
On to Bush? Why, because he lied? Prove it.
