"But the minute we leave, we'll guarantee that all sides will launch into a bloody civil war that will result in far more Iraqis deaths than have resulted in the past 3 years."

Thats neolibs point as well. How long do we delay departure and thus cost american lives and treasure before the above doesnt happen---1 year, 5 years, 10 years?? That is a cost/benefit analysis question between who those who think we need another year or so and folks like neolibs who expect this condition to go one for a long while and get worse over time at great cost both in men and money. Then there is a third group who may think neolib is right but thatit is still worthwhile to stay. I am giving it another 6 months to a year myself. Then we have to accept timetables, three states and the less elegant solutions than a dem, fed, state that protects not exterminates minoritys.
