Mutual consent? Are you saying that the current government of Iraq doesn't want us there? Because they do. There are plenty of Japanese that don't want our bases there. Same with South Korea. We talked about pulling bases out of Germany and they threw a little hissy fit and so did many of the same Americans that want want us out of Iraq. Yeah, you said "mostly" mutual consent.

I believe they don't want us there. Why would they? To keep them safe?

While I do need to get that damned AC fixed, your "I realize" wasn't enough to cover your comment, much as my "mostly" comment didn't seem to work for you.

I also believe that if we were doing to our NATO allies what we are doing to Iraq, they'd probably be interested in seeing us move on.
