Personally if I was Iraqi and I was planning on staying there I can't imagine wanting the Americans to leave.

Because they're doing such a bang-up job keeping everything together? Are you drunk?

The Americans don't leave their bases. If they do, they get their dicks cut off and stuffed down their throats. When they do patrol, its to rape little girls. They are raping, killing, and plundering the entire country, training, supporting, and equipping death squads, and propping up a South Veitnam-syle regime. You obviously aren't Iraqi, because you would know this. They all do.

There are over a thousand killed a week in Iraq. Who do you think started this thing? Do you know who is John Negroponte? Do you know what is the Salvador Option?

The last I looked a slim majority of Iraqis favoured continued American presence, but that number was declining and that was over a year ago.

Heh, and bush had over 50% support at one point in time as well.

This has changed though... Every month for the past... quite a few months... Theres been a growing number of Iraqi casualties from growing insurgents. Baghdad is without question the most dangerous city to be in right now (yes, more so than Tyre or Beirut)... Reports coming out are of groups of armed militants in open combat on Iraqi streets along with torture and signs of civil war/genocide.

Personally I'm very annoyed at some of the senators who boycotted his speech because he refused to condemn Hezbollah.

I never read that... The sheer stupidity of these senators should be made much more public knowledge. The vast majority of Iraqi's hold Anti-american sentiments, so just speaking infront of the Americans as he has here is a calculated risk as is. These senators boycott him because he, the leader of a Shi'a majority country, won't condemn the actions of a Shi'a majority group (Hizbollah)? How many times over do they want want Maliki to commit political suicide here?

According to Juan Cole:

The US Congress, aside from a strange inability to the disproportionate use of force when it sees it, does not seem to realize that the Dawa Party of Iraqi is a revolutionary Shiite religious party not that much different from the Lebanese Hizbullah.

The members of Congress also don't seem to realize that the Iraqi Dawa helped to form the Lebanese Hizbullah back in the early 1980s. The Dawa was in exile in Tehran, Damascus and Beirut and it formed a shadowy terror wing called, generically, Islamic Jihad. The IJ cell of the Dawa attacked the US and French embassies in Kuwait in 1983, in an operation probably directed by the Tehran branch, which was close to Khomeini.

My understanding is that Nuri al-Maliki was the bureau chief of the Dawa cell in Damascus in the 1980s. He must have been closely involved with the Iraqi Dawa in Beirut, which in turn was intimately involved in Hizbullah.
