Read my post again .. I said there or some where in the area
The war on terror will and can only end when humanity no longer exists.
Well gee aren't we the cheery optimist
No, we will be in Iraq for a very, very long period of time. Probably at a level of troops at least half if not more of todays levels. And while my comments may not be optimistic, how many here believed we would be at the troop levels we are today three years ago? Yes, troops would be there, but I believed they would be much smaller in number.
