Omar, your comments would be more convincing if you spoke for yourself and not hubristically for the entirety of The Iraqi People. The fact that you blog on a site like pajamasmedia.com, which promotes an anti-critical neocon view of the rightness of American imperialism and spends so much bandwidth on supporting a president and policy that the U.S. populace has largely rejected, also undermine your credibility for many. Do you really believe your rhetoric that, “To the Democrats [and the majority of Americans who support withdrawal sooner rather than later] my life and the lives of twenty-five other million Iraqis are evidently not worth trying for”. If you do believe this, why would you trust them to work on behalf of a state and people whose lives they have no interest in trying to protect? On the other hand, if you don’t really believe this, why would you want more of the same from the hapless hegemon who has made the conflagration in Iraq possible?
