Let's see who hits the nail on the head. Vote and explain your prediction and we can use this thread to judge who was the most astute when and if the 'coalition of the drilling' haul ass out of I-raq.

Edit: the last option should read 'Never' - d'oh!

They took poodles? Maybe that's why the insurgency is winning. They should have taken pitbulls at least.

It's still only the early days of that conflict, you're totally delusional to think otherwise. It's like the Brits who came here for 2 weeks and stayed 30 years..

Never. But WWIII will spawn from this regardless. Mark my crazy words.

$5 says they stay for about two years more. Surely less than 5.

btw the elections are in November right?

Assuming WW3 doesn't break out in this time, more than 2 & less than 5.

Personally I think it'll be less than a year. That is assuming a Republican wants to stand a chance of winning the presidential election...

I think the US and Brits will withdraw in less than a year for political reasons (election looming!) and they will leave a real mess behind them.

Never.

It is now a U.S. state ( effectively. )

I think we will still have bases there like we do in Korea after the majority of the military is pulled out.

I'm not sure about that, aren't your bases in Korea more for strategic reasons (keeping an eye on the commies)?

As long as there's a reason to be there (middle eastern oil), we'll be there "defending our turf"

I think less than a year, it already seems like they're preparing the public for a pull-out.

The US will probably start troop withdrawals within the next year and a half, but a presence will remain, most likely a hastened pseudo-police force compromised of some UN soldiers.

Why leave now? we haven't accomplished anything yet, more i.e.d.'s than ever and apparently Al-Queda is as strong as it was pre-9/11.
