"Redeploying" from Vietnam didn't end the war there. The war continued, but with our allies in the South being disarmed. If we cut and run again, the war in Iraq will continue, but only one side, the enemy, will be armed.

I was thinking the exact same thing. The phrase 'end the war' is completely wrong in this case. She can advocate ending American presence, but the violence will still go on (and would probably intensify).

It's a cheap, easy way out for her position to be presented as "ending" the war, as though there's going to be some sort of armistice.
