When We Can Head Home...

The White House has just released its "National Strategy for Victory in Iraq." I only skimmed the Executive Summary, but its a multipronged strategy that most importantly aims at separating the undeterrables from those insurgents willing to enter the political process. This maybe the most important of all goals because it will show what the likes of Al-Qaeda in Mesopotamia want for the people of Iraq. Our best bet for large troop withdrawals will be whether or not we can isolate these fanatics from the general population and then detain or destroy them accordingly with the support of everyday Iraqis. When we make headway here, then most of our troops will be heading home.

More on this later...
