We cannot abandon Iraq. If we do it endorses civil war. The war between extremists factions of Shi'ite and Sunni will be backed by Iran et al for the Shi'ite and Saudi et al for the Sunni.

The victor would have the wealth of the world at their feet and the alliance of up and coming superpower neighbors. They would have developed a modern effective and hungry fighting force in the process. They would have bolstered the confidence of millions, possibly a billion people waiting for a world Khalifate. Both sides hold us as their next target of opportunity.

The victor, therefore, wins a bid to the greatest superbowl of them all... the one we call Armageddon.

We can not abandon Iraq at this juncture, no matter how messy and no matter what the cost of our continued participation
