Why is now the time to bring them home?

No time like the present.

(Especially since it seems my time machine plan will not receive funding!)

I'll assume you would support an investment in diplomacy to avoid a future war in Iraq or maybe you think diplomacy at this point is fruitless?

I know I support diplomacy to avoid a future war in Iraq.

Though I feel I gave your question more thought than it deserved.

No one knows why we are there. The reasons for going have shifted a few times, and the success criteria have never been defined.

In short, it's a no-win situation. Therefore, there's no time like the present to bring them home.

edit--- Your signature line reads "Victory in Iraq!" What does victory look like? No one knows.

Like I said, you think terrorism is no threat and you have hundreds of politicians in DC that disagree with you!
These same politicians say they were against the war and then supported it behind closed doors. lol

I LOVE it when others tell me what I think.
I can tell you find that strategy much easier than thinking for yourself.

Did you see a threat in Iraq, like most US politicians?

The Iraqi people turned against the Al Qaida.
When the Iraqis turned against the Al Qaida.....that was the end for the Al Qaida in Iraq.
That is victory.

YOU LOST!

So by your misinformed view of events, we have achieved victory in Iraq already.

Great news! That means you support the immediate withdrawal of all our troops.
I'm sure the troops will be thrilled to hear they have the support of the troll contingent.
