In which case the terrorists have no need to attack in Iraq. They get to Run around the madrassas screaming "We defeated the Americans join us in Jihad" and recruit the next generation of "Holy Warriors" to plan the next series of 9-11 style attacks. We need to draw the "Holy Warriors" out of hiding into a kill zone where their weakness (Convectional military power) is projected up against our strength (firepower, firepower, firepower). Iraq is about taking and maintaining the initiative in the War on Islamic Terror. Iraq is what Sze Tse called "Death Ground" a battle field the terrorists MUST fight on for political reasons. We cannot defend everything, appease or isolate ourselves from these people. I thought after 9-11 even the most cast iron conservative would realize that! Isolationism has NEVER worked. We must fight these people! Iraq is the IDEAL place to do it.

We will never be able to kill all of the people who hate us, and there's evidence that the more of them we kill, the more that replace them. So, according to you, we can NEVER declare victory and leave Iraq. Because that would just be spun in Pakistan and Saudi Arabia and elsewhere as running away in defeat. You can't let idiots like that dictate our policies. What if we let Democrat spin on various things dictate our actions? These nutjobs can spin whatever they want however they want. Once these insurgents are exclusively targeting Iraqis, I bet that hellfire will reign down on them. Arabs can be plenty bloodthirsty and plenty un-PC. Turn Iraqis loose on these mf-ers who are trying to kill their families. They will take care of business. We just have to give them the opportunity and make them seize that opportunity because they can't just let us do the heavy lifting.

What is your opinion on American forces in Germany, Japan, South Korea, Kosovo, etc? Shouldn't those countries be able to handle their own defense, according to your logic?
