US to pull out of Iraq by the end of 2011

Looks like the U.S is pulling out of Iraq within the year and the war is over.

What are your thoughts on this?

I'm glad families will be reunited. I'm hoping what happened in Iraq is sustainable.

On another note: I've had people try and sell me on the Iraqi Dinar investment. I thought it was a scam, as you can find on Forbes, Google, etc.

What will happen to the dinar?

    I had a bank in the grocery store try to sell me the Dinar too. Its a long shot. If I had an extra thousand bucks to wipe my butt with I might try it.

    how about pulling out of Afganastan too? If anything spurs terrorism against the U.S. it is merely our presence over there. I agree with Ron Paul's sentiments about foriegn policy.

    Were going to be in afganastan for another 10 years. DAMN YOU GEORGE!!! We'd of never been in Iraq and been done with afganastan if that idiot wasn't in charge. He actually was our president for TWO terms! I can't believe it.

    Okay, good, thread got moved here so can be more overtly political. Consider the source of the announcement (Obama) Doesn't exactly have a record of truthfulness. Actually, the opposite of what he says is usually true. Therefore, I'd have to conclude we'll be in Iraq for quite awhile.

    Yeah I'll believe it when it actually happens and not before because they've been talking about this over and over and over with no results so until they actually do you have to excuse me for being skeptical.

    Logically, one should take Obama's announcement as a "sign" that troops will NOT be coming home. A prognosticator could have made a very good living predicting exactly the OPPOSITE of what comes out of Obama's lying lips.
