Who said Poles are dumb?

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'W')ARSAW, Poland – The government asked the president Tuesday to prolong the mission of Poland's 900 troops in Iraq for another year, until the end of 2007.
Linky
AP reports that they've approved of the extension today. Thank God the Polish are staying. Whew, that's a load of my worried mind.

So 5 more dead US soldiers today, bringing the total to 2,962, according to the AP. Do you think there will be enough of a rise in violence to hit the official 3,000 mark before/on Christmas, the end of this year, or will we have to wait until '07 to mark this...mark?

What is the point you are trying to make? Are you making an off-handed poke at Poland or just expressing your exasperation at the whole sordid affair? As for why they are staying: probably worth a few more F-16's and lots of additional foreign investment.

I was hoping christmas day would bring the official number to 3000.
Peace on earth will only be achieved when the masses give up believing in some mythical, father, "finger wagging" douche that lives in the sky. If they could stop basing thier life on a lie, maybe they would stop buying the ones their government force feeds down their wide open traps.

Won't happen. People find it easier to believe in lies than accept mortality. Also due to society's organisation we can no longer determine who is trustworthy.

That there is another nation that will stay a bit longer with us since UK will probably pull their troops out pretty soon.

Poo. Still under 3,000: 2,977 according to AP (via Forbes).
