I think Bush has put the lives of every American in greater danger because of his incompetence in not only invading Iraq but in the screwed up way he did it. He choose to listen to his arm chair think tank generals instead of listening to his REAL war tested generals.
With that said. I think we need to do this to resolve the Bush screw up.
We need to pull US troops from our ally nations and reinstate the draft.
We need to saturate Iraq with troops. We need to have an overwhelming presence in Iraq for two reasons. One to quickly snuff out any armed Resistance and two give the Iraqis who are against the insurgents the security to be able to come forward and point out the terror element so that they can be eliminated.
As things are now, there are not enough troops. To have troops rotating through hot spots only moves the terror elements from place to place. Anyone who identifies a terror element in Iraq suffers retribution from an unknown terror element once the US presence leaves the area. this does not give confidence to the Iraqis to help the US. The Iraqis will merely attempt to stay alive in a bad situation.
While this is occurring we need to finish off the Taliban in Afghanistan and capture and kill Bin Laden.
If to do this means we need to add 1 million troops to the entire military, so be it. Will i let Bush and the republicans off the hook, NEVER. I am tired of living with the constant threat of terror, which Bush has only allow to grow stronger with his incompetence.
