    All on the right except Iraq. I answered that we won't win there because of these election results.

    What happens to all those Iraqis that vested their faith and futures in a victory over terrorism by us? They will be slaughtered, and no other peoples on earth will again trust the US to defend their democracies.

    We are witnessing the reason no one can find America in end times prophecy. The greatest military might in the history of the world and we are unable to wield it justly. Oh well it will be systematically dismantled beginning in January.

    I answered we won't win, but it wasn't because of the election results that we won't win.

    Three million Southeast Asians died when we abandoned Vietnam.

    Will the same happen here?

    Yes but we must use a multiplier over the Viet Nam figure. But that shouldn't bother a nation that has murdered 30 million plus of its youngest citizens.

    I don't think so. I think 8 million Kurds will die, 12 million
    Sunni, and 8 Million Shiites - but very few Southeast Asians :tear:

    I, too, ended up on the right with the exception of Iraq. But they didn't have a selection for the answer I wished to use.

    I'm uncertain about a "win" -- I do not believe the election will bring our troops home immediately, nor will it cause us to "lose" this war.

    I've not been deceived -- the Iraq portion remains a part of the greater War on Terror. Until Islamists (be they radicalized, fundamentalist, jihadist, ??) accept coexistence with Israel and the western cultures, there is no win. Doesn't matter what happens in Iraq. We accomplished the original purpose, to oust a egotistical maniac who attempted the assassination of a former president of the USA, who was committing genocide of his own citizens, who used WMDs before and would again at his first opportunity.

    oooops -- I sure didn't mean to get on a soapbox, but I'll let that stand unedited and go back to reading...

    How many Iraquis have already died due to our invasion of Iraq. Does anybody know or even care?

    I was hesitant to take this quiz since it is from the Communist Not News (CNN). The reason is that as I expected, their question are very leftist. Din't like how every question was left leaning and not unbiased. Nevertheless, I did it and found that glory be! I am extreme right. Imagine such a thing. A Bible believer being to the far right of the Communists!

    What a revelation.

    I'm on the right. No surprise there! I'm reading an item that is showing up on the web just now. It's terrific. Perhaps I'll post it.

    How do we win in Iraq? What would a victory be? There is no way to stop all terrorism just as there is no way to stop all murders or stealing.

    The overwhelming majority of those killed on the enemy side were evil, bent on killing all infidels. At no time in history have we done a better job of controlling collateral damage.

    That number is next to nothing compared to what will happen there if we leave the job unfinished. Every person and their families and relations that are suspected of involvement with the west will be gleefully executed. But that's OK cause the Dems will be in charge shortly.


    Does anybody know or even care, SandN?

    This was my first and worst time voting and for once I feel like killing myself or everyone else over the results of my city alone...

    Do you have the numbers for that? Because I really don't know.

    Do we know how many Iraqis have died since the invasion who probably wouldn't have died otherwise?
