If our politicians actually believe we can somehow achieve some kind of success by negotiating with Iran and the Syrians then I got to believe they are smoking an illegal substance. There are only TWO ways to go in Iraq. Continue training Iraqi forces until they are large enough and competent enough to handle their own or give up and pull out and live with the consequences. The only thing we can talk about is how we deploy our troops IN IRAQ during this period. I am thinking we should pull back to secure locations and maybe try to secure Iraq's borders against intrusion by foreign fighters and restrict our activities to special forces type things, and resuppling Iraqi's. I think its our supply lines that are causing the greatest casualties to ourselves. Sadly, I see a situation developing where we prop up the Iraqi's JUST ENOUGH to allow us to declare victory and get the hell out. Beginning to look like the old vietnamese two step, I am becoming very discouraged. Americans must either learn to accept adversity and grit our teeth and fight on or never again get involved in foreign affairs and rely on our nuclear umbrella for our own safety. jdn
