A publicly enunciated “Political Exit Strategy” is just a blueprint for the enemy. It tells them, “If we can do X, the Americans will leave and we will have defeated them.”

I think that if the US troops relocated to Tehran and Damascus, the Iraq violence would taper off. I am reminded of how the USA island-hopped to Japan in WWII. When you can't take a battle to the source, up the supply route, you are in trouble.

We win; They lose!
