It's clear, the Iraqi "insurgents" don't want the US to leave Iraq
They are not trying to drive us out. On the contrary, if the violence were to end, we would be out in a jiffy. They know this,but are not interested in having us leave. Just as some Palestinian factions do not want a free Palestine and at any sign of success at achieving a peace agreement will do anything they can to fuck up the process.

Invading Iraq was such a goooood idea !
It costs almost nothing... Oil is cheaper than ever...
"It's a hell of a mess," retired Gen. Barry McCaffrey told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee last week. "The Iraqi government is dysfunctional, the Iraqi security forces are inadequate, ill-equipped, and we've got very little time. By the way, I'm not recommending we come out of Iraq in a year or three. That's what's going to happen. This thing is over."
McCaffrey said the question is how to stage the withdrawal. "We're going to see some Iraqi two-star general in charge of Iraq three years from today," he predicted, some "hot-shot division commander" who seizes control. The best hope is that it is not another Saddam Hussein.
"I have for sometime wondered if Baghdad would end up looking like Dien Bien Phu one of these days," said retired Gen. William Odom, recalling the massacre of the French army in Vietnam. Urging a total withdrawal, Odom said keeping training troops in Iraq is dangerous. "Talk to some NCOs (noncommissioned officers) and officers who've actually trained them out there," he said. "They fear for their life when they're living and working close with Iraqi forces."
What if an Iraqi tank battalion wheels around and aims its U.S. guns on its contingent of U.S. trainers, experts asked. Are they to call for help from forces in Kuwait?
Once U.S. combat forces drop below seven brigades, "Get out of there," McCaffrey warned. "Leave the Green Zone protected with a Marine battalion, and come out, because I don't want to see us end up ... where we lose 5,000 U.S. trainers some night, when a division announces it's no longer part of the Iraqi army, it's now a Shia militia unit. ... The only reality in Iraq is raw military power
Lets see, how do you win a war? By killing more of them than they do of us. In that case we are monumentally successful. In fact we could kill every single living Arab with a few bombs. They are no match for us, militarily or any other way. They are only good at killing other Muslims. They totally rock at doing that. The reason we are having so much trouble is that we are trying to avoid killing Arabs. Which is no way to fight a war. The problem is that we are too nice. More young men are dying in our inner cities than are dying in Iraq. We have suffered the lowest amount of deaths in any US fought war in history. This war is really no big deal.
I have said this before, and I will say again, we need to nuke them out of the stone age! Look what it did for Japan, seriously! Maybe even give Iran a small taste as well.
They respect power, and feel that we are weak, we should show them who is actually weak.
Yeah, yeah, boo-hoo! I'll it say before y'all get a chance to: "I am violent, and a facist, and have no regard for "human rights", and I eat babies, and blah, blah, blah! Now go cry about it to someone who cares, ya liberal scum.
Liar!! You love babies and not for eating either. Beel just pretends to be a big meanie. He is a fair and senstive guy.
I want to see : "last chopper from Baghdad"...
Yeah, yeah..., I am a sucker for babies, you know this, but "they" didn't!!!
My cover is blown...,
To be bogged down in Iraq is so much fun...
Just for a trillion $
