MY PEASENT THOUGHTS ON WITHDRAWING FROM IRAQ

MMM???...

Well...as a Free Citizen of The Republic...I will attempt to answer this, as IT IS guaranteed in Our Constitution...

Complete withdrawl immediately...we can't...common sense dictates this.

A Phased Partial Withdrawl...now this is very much realistic, phasing U.S. Forces down is acheivable, with an understanding that Our Military will maintain a presence in Iraq and the Persian Gulf for well into the future to preserve a balance of power and peace.

Working and talking with Our Allies, Friends, and the International Community on what can accomplished to stabilize the current situation in Iraq. Keeping in mind the realities of interest, ideals, and agendas that all participants will have...and renewing interest could bring about a revitalization that will benifit the Iraqi people and their government.

With a smaller U.S military presence in Iraq, and renewed interest in bringing about a stabilized peace there, the U.S. could persuaded individual nations to deploy forces thru a new United Nations Mandate, that will maintain U.S. leadership over all military operations, but will include a greater role for other nations in decision making processes. In non-military matters the U.S. will work with the Iraqis and other countries on how best to solve critical needs such as water, electric power, fuel distribution, and medical needs.

Then as this renewed U.S./International effort takes shape and is made real with an organized deployment of International troops and their equipment, America will begin at first a slow, but as time passes a steady partial withdrawl of Our Forces from Iraq. At the same time, increased efforts to train and field Iraqi forces can be achieved thru U.S. and allied training efforts.

The United States should withdraw nearly 100,000 troops from Iraq by the summer or autumn of 2006, while maintaining a presence of 50,000 troops in Iraq, 10,000 in the Persian Gulf, a Quick Reaction Force of 2,500 in Europe, and a Quick Reaction Force of 2,500 in the Indian Ocean and Australia.

The International Community thru the new U.N. Mandate could deploy the following:

Iraqs Borders; A combined Iraqi/British/Indian/Pakistani Force of 10,000 on the border with Syria. A combined Iraqi/Russian/Ukrainian/Belarussian Force of 10,000 on the Iranian border. A combined Iraqi/Indonesian/Malaysian/Bangleshi Force of 2,500 troops on the Western Saudi border. A combined Iraqi/Georgian/Azeribajian/Armenian Force of 2,500 on the Eastern Saudi border. A combined Iraqi/Australian/New Zealander Force of 2,500 on the Kuwaiti border. A combined Iraqi/U.S./Jordanian/Moroccan Force of 2,500 on the Jordanian border.

And a combined Iraqi/Commonwealth of Independent States Force (Turkmen,Tajik,Kazakh,Uzbek,Kyrzyg) of 2,000.

Iraqs Food Supply and Distribution System; A combined Iraqi/South Korean/Filipino/Thai/Fijian/Soloman Islander/Tongan/Samoan/Kiribatian Force of 3,000.

Iraqs Farms; A combined Iraqi/French/German/Vietnamese/Laotian/Cambodian/Filipino/South Korean/Malaysian Force of 3,000.

Iraqs Religious Sites; Both Sunni and Shia sites: Iraqi, Palestinan Authority, Turkish, Afghan, and Mongolian, totaling 1,200 soldiers. Christian sites: Iraqi, Greek, Egyptian, Maltese, and Mongolian totaling 1,200 soldiers. Jewish sites: Iraqi, Ethiopian, Moroccan, German, and Mongolian totaling 1,200 soldiers.

Iraqs Airspace Defense; A combined Iraqi/U.S./Canadian/Ukrainian/Indonesian/Tunisian/South African Force of 3,000.

Iraqs Army and Police Facilities; A combined Iraqi/U.S./French/German/Russian/British/Algerian/Syrian/Jordanian/Indonesian/Australian Force of 20,000.

Civil Affairs For the International Observers and Stabilization Force in Iraqs Reconstruction; A combined Iraqi/U.S./Irish/Tunisian/Palestinian Authority/Argentine Force of 2,000.

Medical Units For the International Observers and Stabilization Force and the Iraqi population; A combined Iraqi/U.S./Japanese/German/French/Syrian/Lebanese/Singaporean/San Marinian/Luxembourgian/Liechtensteinian/Andorran/Monacoan/Palestinian Authority/Bosnian-Serbian-Croatian-Albanian Force of 10,000.

Chemical and Biological Units for the International Observers and Stabilization Force; A combined Iraqi/U.S./French/German/Dutch/Belgian/Czech/Russian/Syrian Force of 3,000.

The total number of Iraqi, U.S., and International Troops from nearly every nation, and remembering, this being under a new United Nations Mandate passed by the U.N. Security Council, would number 153,000 Allied Troops working for a stabilized and peaceful Iraq.


And these are my peasent thoughts on withdrawing from Iraq.

This could happen...
