It might look like we are stalled, but that is only because our troops are so busy killing enemy soldiers, soldiers Saddam keeps throwing at us, into the grinder. We are not stuck in a quagmire; we are fighting against the desperate actions of a dying regime. Saddam has much more pain and horror in store for us, but we will see this through, and we will be victorious.

Yes.

We will win; victory is assured because our cause is just, our military is the best, and our morale only gets stronger with the passing of time. We also have a clearly-defined mission with a clearly-defined outcome.

Yes.

Whenever I read posts and responses such as these, I wonder how many other Freepers and Lurkers there are that would have posted the same responses (didn't want to use the term "ditto" here, it's been spoken for) had someone else not already done it. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

I'm sure that there are many of us who know that we are winning, but just don't say anything. I do get depressed, however, when people wrongly assume that because we haven't "won" the war in a week that we're somehow not doing well. We've made historic progress in this war, and the outcome is simply a matter of "when."
