Iraq is not Vietnam. If we pull out, it is merely a retreat from an enemy that will follow. The enemy began the conflict and will not cease until they are defeated. Our occupation of that terrain is merely a maneuver to recenter their direction of attack away from the US and keep it on foreign soil.

This war is not one that will evaporate if we simply leave. Berg wasn't fighting them anymore and Americans will be wise to observe what the cost of appeasement to Muslim fanatics implies. It is not an avoidable conflict.
