At some point, the chair warmers and lawyers will have to give way to warriors, and the Dogs of War will be unleashed.

At which point the US should admit it lost again and bug out or be prepared to occupy Mesopotania for a century.

US should admit it lost again
I would have to take issue a bit here.
We did not lose the war. What we will eventually lose is the installation of a peaceful government.
This type of "nation building" only worked in WWII because we wreaked such havoc that the enemy wanted peace.
These are not a peaceful people. We should let the military do what it does best, wreak total havoc on the enemy until they are simply tired of it. Total - flat out war.
When they tire of it, pull out and go home. Restock, replenish, and get ready for the next time - and there will be a next time.
When the next time comes, again, total unadulterated, flat out war. Then come back home.
If we let the military do the job, it will take 20-30 years for our enemy to rebuild. If we keep them busy rebuilding, then they can't do war very well.
Lose the war? Not a chance. Bogged down in this "New World Order" nation building crap, sure.

Cordially,

I dearly hope and pray that the United States will never again cut and run FRom any field of combat.

A reasonable person would think that after so many cut and run debacles since WW II, we would have learned our lesson.

At some point, we are going to have to draw a line in the sand and make a stand. Now is a good a time as any, and Iraq and Afganistan and the Worldwide War on Terror are damn fine places to start!

Western Civilization's collective motto in regard to the War against IslamoFacism should be, nay, BETTER BE! MUST BE! "Whatever it takes!"

The United States and its Western Civilization allies are in a war to the death. I shudder to think what would happen if the IslamoFacists prevail.

God help us if the Chair Warmers and REMFs have their way, and continue to undermine the way our military men and women are "allowed" to make war.
