Letter: Leaving Iraq now could be disastrous

Monday, July 16, 2007 | 7:13 a.m.

I hate this war as much as the majority of thinking Americans, but if we abandon Iraq now and al-Qaida moves in to fill the vacuum and starts casting an eye toward the Saudi Arabian oil fields, what then?

If the Saudi royal family is overthrown and gas jumps to $10 a gallon, how happy will the "get out now" crowd be then?
