This is pretty contrivertial here in Canada..... Quebec is the #1 province with the most opposition to the war, and the Van Doos were just sent there (Whom are stationed in Quebec) The opposition for the war here is increasing, and I imagine that it could outbreak in Quebec into some more serious protests and demands to remove outselves from the war if they loose too many troops of their own...... (Which of course is a pretty silly mentality.... since you can't fight a war without risking death.)
The big stink is if our comanders restrict the Van Doos from leaving the Air base, then that will send a big message that it's all political. What would all the other forces and soldiers who have died or have been wounded thus far in our forces think if the Van Doos (Whom have always been known in history as strong fighters) got special treatment?
But then again, Quebec is used to making the rest of Canada tip toe around to what they like..... it'd be nice to see the government tell them to suck it up and get over it. |
Iraq has to eventually do all this themselves. but part of the difficult process is weeding out the bad guys applying for Iraqi troop and police positions. Then they have to establish salary consistency, training and they need to build their self confidence against terrorist on their own.
There have been more and more reports of Iraqis rising against Al Qaeda, so it will get done despite those who want to cut and run to leave a genocide behind for terrorist to fulfill.
