Another thing, that ties current events in with the end times. Back during the Persian Gulf War, a political figure from Iran came to Norman Schwarzkopf and informed him that as soon as the US got their troops out, the Iranians would come in and conquer the eastern portion of Iraq all the way to the Tigris. Only a few short minutes later a political figure from Syria came to him and informed him that they'd take all the way to the Euphrates when they left Iraq. Turkey's then President told em they'd take the northern tip of Iraq, thus engulfing the entire nation.
When we leave Iraq there will be no Iraq! But honestly, as a Christian, I realize this means we're coming close to the rapture! ;D

Mel, I love you. We may believe differently about the Church+State bull, but you've been hitting that nail right on the head. ;D

We left after the Persian Gulf War, unless I'm mistaken (it's possible).

Ok, look at it this way. The Iranians (aka Persians) have wanted Iraq for a long time. They invaded and war went on for 8 years in the 80's. Then Iraqi dictator, Hussein, directed an attack onto Kuwait to try and pay off the war debt from the previous war (as well as the fact that he was insane). We went in and liberated Kuwait, then we went in and took him out, now we've stayed in and tried to rebuild the economy and install democracy. Iran wants Iraq badly... do you think there's any chance they won't invade as soon as we leave? Honestly... wake up!

We left after the Persian Gulf War, unless I'm mistaken (it's possible). Not completely. If I'm not mistaken we got forces still in Germany, albiet in small numbers. The world's motto... never get on the US' bad side, they'll come in and never leave.

I can't seem to find evidence of that.

We did not take out Hussein during the Persian Gulf War. We held him back, left him in power, left, and ~12-13 years later, we went back in and took him out. You said that the people said what they said after the first war. You will notice they did not do it then. Which is when you say they said they said they would. Are we on the same page? Well yeah, we took out Hussein in the past war. But we left troops in there to some degree until the past Iraq war. So, we've officially been in there since the 90's. During that time there was a small time between both the two wars, but we were there nonetheless. Soddom's army was THE army of Iraq. Even if we were to leave Iran would have to start another war with them. NOW we've gotten rid of Hussein and the Army has pretty much started from the ground up. If we were to leave now Iran would much more easily be able to invade.

I can't seem to find evidence of that. Of Iraq or Germany? I may be wrong of Germany.

No, we still have them in Germany. Quite frankly, the statement is more or less true (the never leave, bit). I was talking about Post-Persian Gulf War Iraq.
