But the real mystery of Iraq is why we're still there. There are no
WMDs; Saddam is in custody. Why, now, are we still sacrificing troops
and dollars on a guerilla war that will never be won?

What is today's price for funding a president's effort to save face?

So the author supports the immediate withdrawal from Iraq? That's one of
the stupidest things that I've heard. Did you happen to read the piece in
today's NY Times entitled "U.S. Says Files Seek Qaeda Aid in Iraq Conflict"?
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi (a senior leader of al Qaeda running the terrorist
operation in Iraq) wrote the following in a plea for help to al Qaeda
leaders in Afghanistan and Pakistan:

"We can pack up and leave (Iraq) and look for another land, just like what
has happened in so many lands of jihad. Our enemy is growing stronger day
after day, and its intelligence information increases.

"By God, this is suffocation!" the writer says.

Leaving now would mean allowing the terrorists to win.
