What would happen in Iraq if the Troops left today ?

Civil War

Some Iraqis would kill other Iraqis, just like now.

Our puppet govt there would be violently overthrown, replaced by a govt opposed to the US interests, because of anger about all the Iraqis killed by the US invaision.

Iraq would spiral much deeper into a civil war, the Iraqi minorities would be wiped out, it would be long and bloody, many people would be killed. Toture and violence would be everywhere. Iraq would no longer be a friend of the United States. You can say that the same thing is happening now, and say that Iraq will never be a friend to the United States. I think someday Iraq will be a great friend and a great ally, and if it takes 5 or 50 years, my brothers and sisters and I will continue to fight the good fight.

If they left today or two years from today, the action would be the same . A Civil War and Iraq becomes an Islamic republic.

Iraq would have to take responsibility for keeping tribal hate and fanatics under control. Gee, imagine that. A country actually running it's OWN affairs.

They'd stop dying.

Then the war would come to the United States at our very borders.

No more of our soldiers would die.

The Iraqi people would have their country back - albeit the shattered remains of their country- and the killing of both Americans and Iraqis would dramatically decrease. The rest of the world might have less reason to hate us if we stopped killing people and invading their lands.

The religious nut-bags would take it back over and we would have another Open Terrorist Stronghold, denouncing the west and plotting with Iran to get the bomb.

Get ready folks. It's going to happen. You cannot negotiate with a rabid dog. If elected, that's what the Dems are going to attempt. Within 2 years you will have a nuclear attack on the USA, probably sponsored by Iran, since they are closest to the tech.

Scaling back in Iraq isn't going to help the situation. "Live and Let Live" means NOTHING to these people. Christianity and the Western world must convert or DIE, by their own propaganda statements.

We have 2 choices; eliminate the problem entirely, or start learning to speak various dialects of Arabic. Take your pick. For negotiating certainly is NOT an option.

there would be a civil war..for several years.... and then maybe all the militants would be left dead, then peace for a while..

did you know that iraq had nothing to do with 9/11
It was Osama in Afghanistan..... dont ask me why we are in iraq...... we invaded the wrong country....

I have to add
Why are you cons so invested in the idea we did the right thing and we need to stay and kill some more..... i see the blood dripping from you fangs,,, what is up with such animosity?

lucky s

A big Storm and then quit and peace.

Traffic Jam I would suspect. That is a lot of hummers at the same time.

If they left i think it would be better troops can return home and stop dying left and right and on top of that we would have a little more world peace and way less car bombings if Iraq wants to hurt there men then fine but don't hurt ours to but then again if we leave them alone to long then they might try another September 11 attack maybe if they are to ignorant to learn a first lesson that's my theory
