Cheney: The Iraq war will end before 2009
 

"The vice president said he expected the war would end during President Bush's second term, which ends in 2009."

So, for all the cyber soldiers in here, what do you think about that?

i'm definately not pro bush in any manner, but the 2009 date is a bit misleading

What war?

Yes, what does he mean, that there will be no USA presence in Iraq by that year?

I hope so:(

I think Cheney and Bush are big peices of shit. 12clicks will be right along to kiss their asses, though.

Because Iran is being mean to us.

Iran has sccessfully tested 2,000-km range surface missile, says defense minister Shahkhami in Tehran. Shehab-3 is powered by solid fuel. DEBKAfile adds: A Shehab-3 launching base recently built in central Iran to defend nuclear industry against attack. Its launchers are pointed towards US targets in Iraq, Israel and Gulf.

Yeah its misleading, I think it would longer than that..

I thought the war ended a long time ago? And now it's just an occupation. I wish they would make up their minds.

The escalation has started... time to batten down the hatches and prepare for World War III.

You're dead right. The war is just begining, and personally, the world could do with a couple of billion less humans.

The upcoming pandemic will take care of that, way before WW3.

I love what humanity has become... what a mess.

Its completely fucked. If you watch the way things are going closely, you can see that countries around the world are quietly adopting a war stance in preparation for the worst. Shame they dont know what the worst is or just how soon it will come.

The bible mentions that in the third world war, the world will end. I believe it.

cheney is full of shit

Hopefully the US will go bankrupt before they finish invading the world :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

They are building PERMANENT bases in Iraq.

I was just about to say... :winkwink:

They will be called:

- Freedom 22
- Liberation 41
- Democracy 09


and so on .... :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

" MISSIOIN ACCOMPLISHED "

Hopefully it's true. I'd hate to see the next president (Republican or Democrat) be handed over this mess.

Its the Berlin and cold war all over again. Only with new enemies.

And didn't Bush already say that all major war operations have ended, the war is over. When he landed on that aircraft carrier in what had to be the most blantent propaganda event of the last century.

Is it so hard to believe many people compare this administration to the nazis?
The only difference is that they don't kill jews.

where is the love ppl ? :helpme

Bring it ON!

And who will we be fighting w/ after that?

Top of the list:

- North Korea
- Iran
- Syria
- Venezuela

and for the kicks of it:

- France because they are French
- Canada because they are on top of you
- China because they own Walmart


...

how many innocent civilians are going to die by that time?

:smokin

"YeeHaw" should NOT be foreign policy.

They will have to pull out by then if they even want to consider being re-elected.

why do you think we're only touching countries that have oil?

:1orglaugh

I doubt there will ever come a time in the near future where the US doesnt have at least a few bases or something in Iraq. It's an important region.

Important only because of oil. If they invested in some other technology, or form of fuel in this decade, we could minimize this region, and it's importance. Then atleast the industrialized world would be on another form, of hybrid, or fuel source. Leaving only the 2nd and 3rd world nations to worry about it.

Isreal doesn't need us over there in bases, or otherwise. They kicked the shit out of Lebannon, Syria, Eygpt, back in 1967 in what? How many days was it again? Yeah. Noone fucks with the Isreali's because they know that they will use the bomb they don't deny they have should someone come charging across their borders again.

The middle east situation's a stalemate. Iran or whomever else gets the bomb will just point it at the Isreali's, and they will point them back, or attack their factories, power plants, whatever as they've done in the past. Much like the cold war. If they all blow each other up, one less thing for Fox news to sensationalize, and the rest of the world to worry about.

As for this WW III nonsence. If that ever came to pass, it would most likely be the 'war to end all wars' literally. Especially if you believe in the Bible.

:disgust

The whole oil situation is scary.. I never realized how much we depend on oil until I watched this documentary.

Scary shit.

The war is already over, according to Fox News US troops are now "invited" into Iraq and when they launch an assault on a city, it's the Iraqi government's plan. :1orglaugh

Iraq is now a full fledged democratic country. There is no war there. We should all thank GWB and his fellow republicans for a job well done.

Thanks Mr. Bush :thumbsup You're the best!

good point, those bases in iraq will become a useful staging point for invading other countries in the region :2 cents:

Keep laughing as the Chinese colonize BC and you disintegrate as a sovereign nation through NAFTA :1orglaugh

One day there is gonna be a realization....

"My credit cards have been maxed and they pulled the plug on issuing more. My debts to other nations exceed internally generated assets. Other countries already own high percentages of national corps. The "heartland" has been bought by China. My manufacturing base has gone cos Wallmart keeps imported more cheap shit that everyone wants to consume. I ain't got no more bullets left for another war, but have completed 10% of a massive missile defense system, but nada funds to finish it......"

Not a healthy state.... got little doubt that within 10 years, 15 max, there is gonna be some shocked people.
