Are you saying that supporting our troops is "self-delusion"?

No. I said your sentence was an example of self-delusion. Your sentence said nothing about supporting our troops, which I do.

Rather, I am calling self-delusional your claim that Iraq is a victory. Maybe Iraq will one day be a victory, but to claim that it is a victory is to claim we have already won, which is just plain absurd. Iraq may be winnable, and we may eventually win, but to claim that we've already won, given our current difficulties, has got to be the most preposterous things I have ever heard.

Current difficulties? You've gotten an MSM overdose, I'm afraid. Things are actually going WELL in Iraq (ask the troops!) and only the MSM tells people otherwise.
