...We've spilled enough American blood propping up Iraqis who are not willing to fight for their own country.

The Iraqis are willing to fight for their own country. That is why they are signing up to be in the Iraqi Army and Iraqi Police (and getting bombed while they are crowding around to sign up, but still they join up).

Irate Marine in Ramadi Responds to 'War is Lost' Message (Good News from Iraq)

That last post mentions how the IP are patrolling Ramadi after helping clean out the terrorists. The mainstream media only reports the bad news, and there is bad news, but if you look around you can get a more balanced view. Our military are professionals, they know what to do and how to do it, we have to give them time and support.

Good, now let's let them. Four years is more than enough time to hold their hands. We liberated them, now we have other battles to fight.
