Mission not accomplished...
Man, let's hope they get our kids out of Iraq post-haste. Something really bad is going to happen if they stay there much longer. It makes me wonder why we even had to go in in the first place.
Thousands of sacked Iraqi soldiers swarmed angrily around U.S. headquarters in Baghdad on Monday, as squabbling tribal leaders told the Americans they could face war if they did not leave soon. "The entire Iraqi people is a time bomb that will blow up in the Americans' face if they don't end their occupation," tribal chief Riyadh al-Asadi told Reuters after meeting a U.S. official for talks on the future of Iraq after Saddam Hussein.
"The Iraqi people did not fight the Americans during the war, only Saddam's people did. But if the people decide to fight them now, they are in big trouble...."
"All of us will become suicide bombers," said former officer Khairi Jassim. "I will turn my six daughters into bombs to kill the Americans."
