far as I can tell.
A subject we haven't covered is should we let the reality of a few US dead
every day effect how long we stay in Iraq now that we are there. Also
interesting would be correlating responses to views of whether we should be
there in the first place.d
So here is my view (coming from the perspective that we needed to be where we
are, although I would have been more patient):
Now that we are there, we can not afford to leave for several reasons:
1. We would leave the Iraqi arguably worse off in the short run then they
were (worse infrastructure, economy, safety/security vs.. better control,
freedom ....)
2. We would prove that anyone who can kill a few of us can make us run
3. A revitalized Iraq with their form of democracy would strongly,
positively impact this tinderbox of a region
4. I believe that success in Afghanistan, Iraq and creating a lasting
Mid-east peace are linked

Good movie.
Your logic sucks though. A rise in attacks, especially as they are focusing
even more on attacking Iraqis that work with the US, can definitely indicate
that they are worried about how well we are doing.
