It has been proven that they want democracy! It has been proven that they are rejecting Alquieda. These are simple people who just want peace, to make money, and to rase their familys. They are not the intolerant religious fanatics that you think them to be! They want democracy!

This is what your missing. No one wants the war to continue! Your above question is ass backwards. The question should have been phrased like this.
TO THE WAR SUPPORTERS: Is there any way to back up your claims that the Iraqi people, in general, still want democracy?
or
TO THE WAR SUPPORTERS: Is there any way to back up your claims that the Iraqi people, in general, want the insurgentcy to stop killing their familys for supporting there goverment?
or
TO THE WAR SUPPORTERS: Is there any way to back up your claims that the Iraqi people, in general, want the US to continue to help them with a self sustaining Iraqi democracy dispite the violence that will follow?
My answer:
Go to iraq. See the decapitated heads of full familys surrounded by flys and thick pools of blood. You notice some are younger than 3 years. Why were these people murdered? Because the mujahadien didnt approve of the head of households choice to join the Iraqi army/police force/govermant. Now that you see all this why dont you go ask the Iraqi soldier/policemnan/govener whos family just got murdered if he wants independance from these islamic extreamist. This is just an example of many many accounts that I have witnessed in Iraq. This is no way for a people to live! We know they want democracy due to the voter tournout. We know they are rejecting terror by looking at the anbar provence and the north. We know we are winning due to the drop of casualtys and their congress has passed more legeslation than ours. We also know there not ready to take on this enemy alone. Finally we know that moving our forces out of Iraq will result in Iraq becoming an brutal oil funded terror state. The choice is clear! Victory is our only option!
