"But it *does* follow from my argument ('the longer we stay, the more we lose') that things would be progressively getting worse"

That was my point. Glad you could understand.

" it does not follow that we should stand in the middle of every civil war, everywhere in the world --- "

Why do you guys ALWAYS go on tangents like this? Who would ever suggest such a thing? You actually implied that we entered into the middle of a civil war in Iraq, when that is nowhere near the case. Show me where I, or anybody has suggested standing in the middle of every civil war in the world is what we should do. Just ridiculous when you use silly unfounded statements and then build an "argument" around it.

"which side in the civil war represent the 'good guys' to you?"

The shites, khurdish and all who are against the terrorists. Again, what side are you on (again)?

"I'm suggesting the way for us to WIN."

You have CLEARLY stated that we cannot win with the military as we are doing. And as I said, we will see. I am curious as to how you will respond once we do, and you can bet that I will be checking.
