Sounds cute, but we're not quite there yet. Right now, the only reason you think you can afford the luxury of entertaining that whim, is because we are, due to a position of strength - OUR strength, able to hand over control of areas in a deliberate, relatively seamless manner....that is, for an area inundated with terrorists dressed like civilians, and brass that'd rather prosecute our forces than hunt theirs down.
The wolf is still at their door. If we just walked away before they're ready, as Reidlosi and the Paulettes suggest, THEN they get their Vietnam aftermath, with millions, not thousands, dead, with Israel just one of many ground zeroes.
Well, that was alot of meaningless rhetoric!
The fact is the Iraqi's are capable of defending themselves and much of what is being called terrorism is simply criminal activity by gangs.

Oh, cut it out!
There is no North Vietnamese Army ready to swoop in and conquer the country.
As for Israel, there isn't a nation in the Middle East she couldn't defeat on her own.
