    If American Troop deaths dont faze our President and a lot of Americans in this country, why would any other country deaths?

    Perhaps I should have titled the post: Meanwhile in Canada. The question really is whether this steady stream of casualties in this no-win war will faze Canadians.

    I doubt that many of our troops are there because they believe in the mission. It’s more like their there because they will not leave their buddies to finish the mission without them. Many of the troops and their families are speaking out about this on their blogs. When this military finally loses the military the game is over.

    Woops.

    When this “administration” finally loses the military the game is over.

    S-q,

    That’s true…

    The Australians are going to Pull out of Iraq!

    Now that our Allies have read about Bush’s Treason here in America with CIA-Plame and Iraq, I wonder how many of them are going to pull the troops too!

    After all, the world is watching us here in America and many of the Worlds leaders including our Allies don’t like to be betrayed either!

    Who’s left in Iraq and Afghanistan besides the Brits, Canadians & Aussies ?

    Heads up Georgie Porgie, Nobody in the World likes a Globalist Traitor!

    This CIA-Plamegate Iraq thing is going to be a Foreign Policy Fiasco…

    Thank our President Kids….”Thanks King George!”

    Geezer:

    Yes and how close are we to that? I hear enlistments are down…

    GEF:

    Yes, the Brits and Aussies are leaving and guess what? Our troops are staying! Imagine a President so arrogant to stay in a war that he lied about?

    Suzie– Here is the latest data I could find (quickly):

    Poll Results
    Do you agree or disagree with the following statements: Canada should withdraw its troops from Afghanistan before their mandate ends in February 2009

    Agree 50%
    Disagree 32%
    Not sure 18%

    Canada is shouldering too much of the burden of NATO’s mission in Afghanistan

    Agree 55%
    Disagree 19%
    No sure 25%

    The Afghan people are clearly benefiting from Canadian efforts in their country

    Agree 43%
    Disagree 22%
    Not sure 36%

    The Harper government has effectively explained the mission in Afghanistan

    Agree 23%
    Disagree 55%
    Not sure 22%

    Source: Angus Reid Strategies Methodology: Online interviews with 1,056 Canadian adults, conducted from May 25 to May 28, 2007. Margin of error is 3.1 per cent.

    Thanks Punditman! Interesting!

    [...] Iraq theatre, the guerrilla warfare tactics of the Taliban extols a terrible price (recent instance here) – and keeps confounding regular military tactics, for example leading to inevitable friendly-fire [...]
