Under the existing plan, two brigades, or about 10,000 troops, are to be withdrawn from Iraq by the end of 2009. Mr. Gates said it was now possible that an additional brigade, or 5,000 troops, would come home by that time.
Mr. Gates offered the assessment after meetings and dinner in Baghdad on Tuesday with Gen. Ray Odierno, the top American commander in Iraq. The defense secretary made his comments to reporters at a stop in Turkey on his way back to Washington.

The US pre-emptively invaded Iraq because of WMD’s. There were none. The US forged documents, murdered naysayers, outed agents, vendictively retaliated against anyone who opposed them, threatened and blackmailed congressmen, and blatantly lied during their intelligence failures. My question……what the fuck is the US still doing there?

I AGREE – BAN THESE MOLES.
Anyone who posts. “1st post” or other NONSENSE should be BANNED.
This is ridiculous and I think they are only moles trying to distract from conversations on the articles.
It’s probably some hired agents running psyops sitting in Israel playing little info-games on us.
GUESS WHAT? It’s NOT working.

Unfortunately it is working. Threads are being hijacked so as to not talk about their meaning and get people distracted fighting these trolls. I’ve been reading these boards for a while now and the quality of the posts has plummeted as well as the sheer number of intellectual people trying to help others. Please look into Plato’s Allegory of the Cave. Every time I feel like giving up I remember that lesson and try to keep plugging along helping others. Maybe we can convince them of the errors of their ways.

Let me guess they are posting the truth that there were no commercial planes on 9-11 and YOU dislike that? If you make your living in military, government, or media I could see how that would be unfriendly towards you?
Can you give specific examples of distractions and trolls?

Fool firsters, grow up. Read the story people, post on the issue.

Faster troop pull out? Compared to what, Geologic Time?

Compared to Alexander the Great and his army. We have planes and trucks and stuff now.
It’s going to be a faster pull out but still slow enough to leave some troops in bases there for a couple of generations. We spent so much money on bases there we have to get some use out of them, right.
Don’t fight the system:
Replace it

I wonder how long they’ll stay home before the government decides to waste their lives on a futile conquest.

It wasn’t futile. Halliburton made a mint. Huge corporate profits are worth the sacrifice of a few million worthless human lives.

Obama originally said 16 months.
Then he said 50,000 non-combat troops permanently in the country.
A few days ago, he said end of 2011, which would be 24 months.
He is CONSTANTLY changing the story. Reason being, his approval rating is dropping quick, so he’s going for a quick publicity stunt.
Also, he doesn’t run the military. He is just a mere puppet.

They’re just ” smarter ” as far as their killing technology is concerned , I’m not sure other

Zionnists in that domain might be rough…..granted !!!

Gates see faster pullout because he is now opening up the “Gate” to even bigger conflicts and will need troops there. Moving troops around is not a pullout

acl,I’ve been saying several times that the NWO needs all the troops they can get in order to invade Iran. So we’re basically saying the same thing just in different ways.
July 30th, 2009 at 10:02 am
How about total non-interventionism, rather than faster intervention, soon to be over, someday?
July 30th, 2009 at 12:07 pm
Don’t ban anyone. that’s the whole point of this thing. Don’t talk about defending freedom then about how you want to band people who disagree with your point of view.

It’s all a shell game , withdrawal 5 thousand today , add 10,000 tomorrow , move 30,000 to Afghanistan on Friday , withdrawal 5000 on Xmas . It’s all meaningless !
They knew there were no WMDs , the planned the privatization of Iraq BEFORE the illegal invasion (Bremmer changed the banking Laws so that foreign banks can by up 100 % of any Iraqi Bank , when it was limited to 35% before ), sold by the lying Colin Powell and they knew they were going to have permanent bases there for ever . And now Obama is bringing in the killer Colombian Army into Afghanistan ,boy they should be happy about that , maybe he’ll kick in a few citizenship with the deal , As if the Iraqis and Afgans had enough problems getting shot up at check points , not understanding English .
And with a Billion Dollar Fortified City ( AKA embassy ) how many troops will be station and occupying PAKISTAN , followed by Israelis , Colombian killers .
They wrote it , they planned it , all part of Full Spectrum Dominance of the middle east and Eurasia and if you don’t like foreign troops occupying your homeland , you’re a terrorist !

Bremmer was also the CEO of the company located in the WTC building at the EXACT SPOT where the nose of the supposed plane hit on the morning of 9-11. Interesting to note that his offices had been filed from floor to ceiling with these large black containers. And they covered the entire floor. They told employees they were computer terminials even though they were never used. Large black containers also hold thermite?!!!
There were no commercial planes on 9-11. The never ending global US war on terror is a fraud.

The temporary, conditional Iraq SOFA ratification expired yesterday leaving the SOFA null and void. The US needs to get out of Iraq like the rest of the coalition of the willing did when their authorization ran out.
