"If in 2 weeks, Blackwater Security personel can pass safely through Falujah...I call that a victory." Thank god our early Presidents didn't feel that way about paying tribute to the Islamic barbary pirates -- for "safe passage"...
Get real..
The ONLY path to victory, lies over the graves of every Jihadists that wishes to impose his will on a non Jihadist.
Peace through the death or total defeat of the enemy....is a more reliable peace...

When Jefferson came to office it was over 1/5th of the entire federal budget.
The pirates messed up a good thing by not keeping their part of the deal. But that's what pirates always do.
