Who is this ‘we’ you speak of? The guys I’m talking about have no intention of withdrawing, nor do their hosts want them gone. They’re making a living, helping the other countrys’ economies, and changing lives for Christ. They actually have genuine friendships with muslims, which is what gives them spiritual leverage.
That’s all well and good, right now, but if al-qaeda were disengaged from Iraq, you seriously don’t think they’d just go home and call it a day do you?
