Perhaps a more practical approach would have been to invade, find and kill Saddam and his followers, install an interim government, and pull out.

    What do you think is going on right now? You can't just "install an interim government" without some attempt to making it stable. And you can't expect people with little practical experience in self-governing to just magically have a functioning government in a few months or whatever timeframe would suit you. BW

      Iran to hang teenage girl attacked by rapists. "In August 2004, Iran’s Islamic penal system sentenced a 16-year-old girl, Atefeh Rajabi, to death after a sham trial, in which she was accused of committing “acts incompatible with chastity”." "The teenage victim had no access to a lawyer at any stage and efforts by her family to retain one were to no avail. Atefeh personally defended herself and told the religious judge that he should punish those who force women into adultery, not the victims. She was eventually hanged in public in the northern town of Neka." http://www.iranfocus.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=5183 My mom told me once that "while we all don't speak the same language, everyone in the world undestands an asskicking"

      Very sad. I wonder how people let this kind of thing happen in the 21st century. Are people too afraid to stand up and be counted? Or are they happy with this kind of "justice"? All countries have their shameful moments when it comes to "justice" but this kind of thing makes me angry because there is so little I can do about it. And what makes me sadder still, is that you got voted down for posting it. Michael CP Blog [^] Development Blog [^]

          Well I really wound'nt want to reward him with money for being a jerk. It might give other leaders a bad idea.

          If we did that then everyone would say it was just a puppet goverment of the US, right?

          I think this remains to be seen. Costly yes, but not wasteful. Time will only tell.

          Exactly what we did. But we are going to pull out when the job is complete, otherwise it surly would be a waste. Why bother.

          We are not occupiers. There is a plan to leave, it's just that we are not going to say publicly when that date is becase the terrorist would just sit back and wait for that date.

                Well, Germany has approx. 1/3 of the population the US has. In the US, accidents included, there are over 11000 death by firearms. In Germany, there are around 200 each year. So, I guess, you could say that gun-control works alright. Or, to put it more offensively, gun control reduces the deaths by firearm by a factor of 20. And why? Because it is much harder and more expensive to get a firearm here. Even for the criminals. Cheers, Sebastian -- Contra vim mortem non est medicamen in hortem.

                But they do get them, and there are killing by firearms in Germany. And how many were not criminals? Poor bastards they killed never had a chance to defend themselves.

                        kgaddy has a tendency to find the flimsiest of sites that report the weirdest of events, then extrapolates that to all things Islam. My initial reaction is to assume the report itself is false, until I can find supporting evidence.

                                I am in now way related to you. I think your having a hard time he so I will explain. All you said was hanging a girl from be raped was not sharia. Ok, fine. Now lets move on.... DO YOU SUPPORT SHARIA LAW? Is that slow enough? My mom told me once that "while we all don't speak the same language, everyone in the world undestands an asskicking"

                                  kgaddy has a tendency to find the flimsiest of sites that report the weirdest of events, then extrapolates that to all things Islam. My initial reaction is to assume the report itself is false, until I can find supporting evidence.

                                  Typical. I'm sure that such an open society like Iran will be glad to tell you exactly what's going on.

                                    What do you think is going on right now? You can't just "install an interim government" without some attempt to making it stable. And you can't expect people with little practical experience in self-governing to just magically have a functioning government in a few months or whatever timeframe would suit you. BW

                                    I agree, but that's what experts are for. We're supposed to be experts in democracy and nation building, aren't we? So bring in the experts and have them train the Iraqis in getting their nation going. I don't see why we need a 100,000+ armed presense for an indefinite period of time. It just seems to aggravate the situation. Regards, Alvaro

                                        That why you are a programmer, and we have other people, like generals who know a lot more about this stuff than you or I. What would your response be to a person who said to you "Why are you charging me so much? It's just a webpage." You would probaly try to explain that there is much more involved than just creating buch of pages for a website. Like creating databases, tables, sprocs. Creating your business layer, getting the site running on a box. ect. I other words, you or I are not trained to know how many troops are needed. Lets leave that to the guys getting the job done.

                                          "Sharia (Arabic: شريعة; also Sharī'ah, Shari'a, Shariah or Syariah) is the Arabic word for Islamic law, also known as the Law of Allah. Islam classically draws no distinction between religious, and secular life. Hence Sharia covers not only religious rituals, but many aspects of day-to-day life, politics, economics, banking, business or contract law, and social issues." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharia You never going to answer me. You and I both know it. Just tell me. Do you support a nation having Sharia Law? After all, it is from the koran, striaght from the words of Allah.
