America's Crybaby
It seems that some US politicians from both parties, and certain parts of the US society has not learned their lessons from the Vietnam war. US troops was in Vietnam without a goal to win the war, and the war was lost. US troops must not be in Iraq without the goals of winning the war. Shifting US troops role from combat to trainer only is simply suicide.
Vietnam is different than Iraq. After the Vietnam war was over, the Vietnamese had no desire to attack the US or her interests abroad. Not so in Iraq. Simply withdrawing US troops from Iraq, will not stop terrorists attack against the US and her interests. It will emboldened the terrorists to fight against the US and her interests both in American soil and abroad. Those who want immediate US troops withdrawal without winning the war, are America's crybaby. What they do not want to fight in Iraq, they will have to fight in American soil and elsewhere. Usama bin Laden's stated goal is to never let US citizens sleep well till the Palestinians can sleep well in their own homeland. In some sense, Usama has succeeded in this efforts.
Violence in Iraq is not the root cause of the problem, it is just the symptoms. We know that just dealing with the symptoms will never cure the ills. Iran's and Syria's bloody hands are behind the violence in Iraq. Unless the US deals decisively with Iran and Syria, she will never be able to stabilize the situation in Iraq.
