There is tons of news on the anti-war protest by Cindy Sheehan. I don't agree with Bush's policies, neither do I agree with Cindy's. Yes, troops need to be withdrawn from a foreign country once our work is done there. First, we had no work. US is not World Police. However, what's done is done. Now, troops need to be called back home and Iraq needs to given its territory to fight its own battles. However, this should happen over a period of 3 months time and not as a split call because of protestors. Maybe Cindy is suggesting that this could be a timely operation but media makes it sound like she wants to withdraw them in a heartbeat.
I'd like to mention that this story is making history for our future generations. I acknowledge and sympathize with Cindy myself and plead her to make the media understand that you are not suggesting immediate withdrawal but withdrawal over a set period of time i.e. we need a date. December 2005? March 2006. Obviously, it cannot be past March 2006 since US has its own problems to deal with before acting as World Wide Police Service.
This is just my two cents. Top off today with growing oil prices and unexpectedly high inflation. We need a lottery system where everyone wins.
