Geez, you sure wouldn't want to send your army of trained killers someplace where someone might get hurt!!  
Not unless I had a good reason for doing so. But, thats what this is really all about isn't it?

I gathered from your earlier comment that you would not send an Army into harms way. A leader who doesn't consider war an option - in some circumstances -is more dangerous than one who does.
And yes, this election, among other things, appears to be a referendum on whether this conflict was justified.
Honestly its really sad that they don't realize that they are slowing the rebuilding of their nation and the exit of the occupying nations.
For most of the groups, the goal appears to be keeping the USA engaged and tied down until forced to withdraw in defeat. Preventing the rebuilding of Iraq would be central to that goal. Just don't say "they don't realize that they are slowing the rebuilding of their nation." They understand that perfectly well.
A good treatise on "Why Iraq Isn't Getting Better," in a government controlled/Liberal controlled mainstream media source, Time Magazine.
