Haliburton is not the issue, Don Rumsfeld is a moron and he's running the war wrong. More troops more weapons more everything are needed to secure the area faster. Haven't heard much bad stuff coming out of Iraq of Afghanistan lately though.

Iran is an issue, if anyone attacks them then oil suddenly shoots to $200 a barrell...granted the US could take them out just as fast as Iraq or Afghanistan but it would take more troops and our Allies wouldn't be there with us eventhough we'd be doing the world a big favor. This is where the UN really shows everyone how weak it is!
I'm not sure that we have really succeeded in taking out Afghanistan or Iraq yet, Lyle? Problems are still there and we have yet to achieve our pre-invasion goals. I think we need to be careful about opening up another theatre at this stage?
well... iraq's army was defeated... and there was NEVER an "insurgency"

what it is is the sunnis and shites blowing each other up, were just getting caught in the cross fire
