[QUOTE="Ghost Who Walks, post: 169467, member: 8893"] Canon, I hate to weigh in, being new here and all, but you are misinterpreting U.S. obligations. According to the White House just 3 days ago: [I]We [B]were[/B] there as an occupying force, and now we’re there at the invitation of the [B]sovereign, elected government of Iraq.[/B][/I] There is nothing preventing us from leaving at any time, except the fortitude to do so. We are accomplishing nothing by being there, except creating enemies out of a people that used to be our friends. Your understanding of International Law seems to be on a par with your understanding of the nuances of Middle Eastern culture. You may want to reconsider that career at the State Department. [/QUOTE]
