Much agreed. Plus, the election should be slow by American standards...Iraq does not have near as many resources as we do in the States.  View

We can withdraw whenever we feel like it. The baddies wouldn't go anywhere even if we declared Iraq to be America's 51st state. Of course, we can be glad that at least so far it's been quiet. But that's no guarantee for the future.  View

I would certainly say the timing and the way the film is made--in a quasi-documentary format--were intentional moves on the party of the filmmakers to circulate more anti-Iraq war sentiment or at least discussion. However, I do not think this is wrong in the slightest. Moviemakers are artists, and art (like most things really) is far from objective. It's not supposed to be. Therefore, such a film is in every way acceptable. As far as smear campaigns go--it could be the case. Like the video points out, they've happened many times before. Although, I must say, many of those speakers (particularly, the U.S. soldier) seem quite genuinely upset and at-odds at the film. Perhaps he was riled by others?  View

If the Sunni boycott does occur, it shows one group finds the elections unfair. I agree with the National Dialogue Front group's feeling toward the candidate ban. If those who feel the election is unfair vote for the best candidate for change then Iraq can take further steps towards more fair elections.  View

Biden probably shouldn't have said anything without giving at least some credit to the Bush administration. Bush had some major gaffs, but the Iraq situation is panning out to be his greatest achievement, especially if Iraq remains stable for the next few decades. Obama/Biden shouldn't take that away from him.  View

Biden should have mentioned efforts of the Bush administration regarding progress in Iraq; however, it will definitely be an accomplishment for the Obama administration to finally send troops home.  View

Credit should have been given to the Bush administration for the stability in Iraq. I don't think it is right for Obama/Biden to take all the credit although they are in the position of power at the time when everything is finally coming together.  View

I'm not advocating war, but international sanctions have done nothing. Since we've been committed to Iraq and Afghanistan, Iran and North Korea have grown stronger.  View

Well, I'll admit my knowledge of Xe's operations are limited, but from what I gather from this video, it sounds like the US must not overly rely on them, considering they're banned from Iraq. Though I don't know what competitors Xe may have.  View

I agree with the statement read from the Khaleej Times. I think these dismissed charges will only increase hostility between Iraq and the U.S.  View
