You said — “Instead of calling for our troops to withdraw, we should be standing on our chairs, shouting and clapping, encouraging them to fight on in this battle and the battles that are to come..................”

It will take a decade to stabilize that country effectively and drive out the last vestiges of the Islamic terrorism. But, after we go, the religio-fanatical-governmental idealogy that is called Islam will take back over again (if it hasn’t already) and push democracy out and that will be the end of that.
I hate to tell you this, bro, but Islamic terrorism has been around for many decades, and will be around for many decades to come.................crawling under a rock is not the solution. The Jihadists have dipped their toes in American waters, and things will never be the same as they were before.................we have to kill as many of these guys as we can, and no matter how many we kill, it won't be enough.............they are going to keep coming.........we are in this for the long haul, probably until Christ comes.
This is a lot like WWII, it's either kill evil or crawl under a rock...........
