“Now that Iraq has become, by al-Qaeda's own reckoning, a crucial front in the global war to build a radical Islamic empire, the collapse of Iraq's new democratic government would be a huge victory for al-Qaeda. Any "exit strategy" for the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq that is perceived by Muslims as a victory for al-Qaeda would boost the group's ability to recruit new members far beyond the current rate.”Only a fool could think otherwise.

what gtes me is how there is no debat in this country about just what a withdrawl would mean and what its implications would be....for instance does anyone really think we'd be able to hang on in afghanistan if we quit Iraq?
