The BBC says there are "few easy answers in Iraq" from, the defeatist BBC

Well let's see if we can help these self defeating wimps out over at the BBC; especially you John Simpson - pay attention!

The violence in Iraq over the past week is far from a generalised Shia uprising, but the Americans can take little comfort from that.

We are not defeatist and looking for comfort like you wimps. We are there to liberate the Iraqi people and doing a damn fine job no thanks to your biased reporting. Why do you think there is no "generalized Shia uprising" moron? Because they do not support these Iranian backed terrorist.

One year after the US-led invasion, things are decidedly not going according to the Pentagon's game plan.

Nothing, repeat nothing, ever goes to plan in a war. The US knew full well that the closer we got to handing power over to the Iraqi people, violence would increase. They may have misjudged how far the Iranians would go in backing Sadr and we are paying the price for that with US lives. At the same time over 700 terrorists have been eliminated. Freedom has a price.

First off, the Bush administration hoped to encourage its allies to shoulder much of the peacekeeping burden. Many countries did come forward with troops, but not enough.

Yep, just as usual. Let America pay for everything, let Americans die for the worlds freedom and blame America for anything that went wrong. You weasel, why don't you write an article about how shameful that is.

The Pentagon also radically underestimated the number of troops that would be necessary.

At his most recent press briefing, the overall US commander in the region, General John Abizaid, stressed that the solution to Iraq's problem did not lie with the US armed forces but "with the Iraqis themselves".


"Radically underestimated" the number of troops? Then why is most of the country stable and violence free? Why are electricity, water, sanitation, schools and hospitals all up and running better than before the war?

After 35 years of living under a ruthless dictator it might be a little early to expect the Iraqis to be a modern fighting force. What they need is training, leadership, encouragement and time. Certainly not some defeatist attitude from a defeatist organization like the BBC.

The US may weather this storm, but continuing insecurity will only provoke future trouble, and many of the "big issues" in Iraq - for example, the distribution of political power among Shia, Sunnis and Kurds - have barely been touched upon.

Yes, moron, only one year on, after 35 years of oppression, no investment in infrastructure and no political machine, not to mention the interference from countries like Iran and Syria and the withholding of support from other countries it might take some time to finish the "to do" list.

Why not write an article on how much has been accomplished? Because you anti-American, Bush blasting, moron, it is easier to be defeatist. Bad news sells.

US commanders have insisted that they have used force carefully and while accurate civilian casualty figures are, as yet, hard to come by, some reports speak of very large numbers of civilian dead in Falluja.

Yeah? Whose reports, weasel? Ever notice how your corrupt organization never gives sources or links? Would those "some reports" be from Sadr and his thugs or do you just quote the Iranians or Al-Jazeera?

Nonetheless, for all the criticism and complaints, there are no easy answers for the Americans in Iraq, a fact that will no doubt dwell on President Bush's mind as the November elections come ever closer.

The answers are easy, weasel, you just don't like them. Continue to kill the bad guys, arrest or kill Sadr and his thugs, sanction or do what you have to with Iran and Syria, continue to rebuild Iraq, expose the anti-American BBC propaganda machine and tell weasels like you to go to hell!
