Iraq - we must not loose

You can read report from troops that say we're making progress and those that say we're not. Are we all like the blind men feeling the elephant and trying to figure out what it is?

Iraq is currently in a civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure.

If you think our presence in Iraq creates more terrorists, you should see how many will jump to enlist should we retreat in defeat. Terrorist around the world will feel that if they sacrifice enough, the U.S. can be defeated.

Rightly or wrongly we’ve drawn a line in the sand. I don’t see how we can afford anything less than victory.
