SEATTLE -- Former President Jimmy Carter criticized the war in Iraq on Wednesday, urging a troop drawdown as the United States enters its fourth year of conflict in Iraq.
"It was a completely unnecessary war. It was an unjust war," said Carter, the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize winner. "It was initiated on the basis of false pretenses. All of those are true, but we can't just pre-emptively withdraw."

"troop drawdown" versus "troop withdrawal".
I don't see where you get the "very misleading."

Well Carter Presidency was completely unnecessary and the disgrace at Desert One was unjust and uncalled for.

No, they were based on true false pretenses. Obviously you either didn't read or you have difficulty understanding liberals

withdrawal of a military force means disengagement. Draw down of a military force means reduction. There is a difference
