    Not what you think they should do but what you think they will do.

    Me I believe they should stay but I think they might pull out.

    Meaning before it is wise to do so. i.e. to pack up now and run off because of some explosions will not happen IMO.

    The brits have a schedule. Mighty punctual, and good at waiting in queues, y'know.

    They wont pull out, if they were to pull out after the bombings that would make teh terrorists win, they'll stay there as long as needed.

    The UK should look at the situation in Iraq and make decisions about Iraq based on what is best for Iraq and for the world, without allowing the terrorist act to influence their decision. But my guess is the terrorist act will make it less likely that they will choose to pull out of Iraq ahead of schedulle, just because it could be interpreted as a sign of weakness.

    I agree; indeed this act of terror in London makes the justification for the War on Terror, in Iraq and elsewhere, more emboldened and more important!

    Blair wasn't kidding in his brief speech this morning... terrorism accomplishes nothing!

    Of course we won't bloody well pull out. What a ridiculous thing to say.

    I am concerned about revenge attacks on Muslims in the streets from the brain dead who don't quite understand that religion is just their cover.

    If thought about logically, there is little choice. The liberals and the non-liberals alike agree on this being the only option and it is not even feasible to leave at this time. There can be little doubt, the troops will stay.

    What are you crying about? I love how people just come into thread to complain and be seen.

    This might be the dumbest poll in the entire history of Bigsoccer.com, even going back to the days when it was Metrofan.com.

    Your poll also shows an amazing ignorance of British history.

    They'll stay, just look at the Battle of the Somme and you will see determination that sometimes goes beyond intelligence.

    Determination that goes beyond intelligence??? haha, I like that.

    I don't know if they'll pull out, but the last country that announced a pullout after a bombing, got another bombing.

    UK under Blair basically is a US puppet.

    So pulling out of Iraq would never happen unless Blair was replaced by a different person.

    That is one of the most unintelligent things I have read on this board, and there are some really unintelligent people on here.

    It may be an over-simplification but you cannot deny the fact that in this "friendship" between Blair and Bush, England has done a lot for them (I mean even behind the curtains agreement on going to war with Iraq before anything had been discussed with the British public or parliament) and America has done very little if anthing for the Brits!
