It's a hell of a lot easier to start a war than to quit one. It's real easy to "stay the course". It takes courage to admit a mistake.

First of all, the "war" is over.

Second of all, the plan appears to be a referendum on the constitution in a few weeks, followed by a 2nd national election in about three months.

One would hope that after that, a plan for US withdrawal (at least from police activities and hunt-and-kill operations) would begin fairly soon, say in Q2:06.

That sound OK with you? It does to me. It certainly sounds preferable to "all coalition forces bivouac their way to Kuwait and then home starting October 6th", and any coalition member not out of Iraq-proper by October 9th (4 days from today) is on his own! That seems to be your proposal, which doesn't sounds like a good idea.

You are not anti-war, the war portion is over....
