Rencently i´ve been hearing alot of the anti-wr lobby holdin demonstrations demanding ´the US ends its occupation of Iraq´. I cannot see the logic in this. I can understand the reasons why before the war they campaigned to prevent it but shurely by pulling out of Iraq in its current political climate would result in more violence in the power vaccum it would create? Shurely as ´peacfull´organisations they want to limit violence? Can anyone explain this to me?(preferably without screaming)Thankyou

Well, of course the anti-war lobby wants America to pull out of the war, that's why they're against it... simply because it's a "war."

Agree that it wouldn't be such a good idea to pull out asap. Can't actually explain to you what you wanna know(even if i use ALOT of screaming ;) ).

Would just like to say that the US got into this shit by themself and should be the ones who cleans it up. Together with thier allies that is. You shouldn't go to UN for funds etc.

I am against war and this war in particular. I however don't want the US to instantly pull back. That would be worse.

Ok..fair enough..we'll clean up our own mess..but that means that only the UK, and the 28 UN member states that supported us well get any contracts in Iraq...if it is our mess..we sure as hell are going to reap some of the benefits of it.
