8. Excellent, this identifies the problem
"Have we learned anything about policies to support, battles to lose, pyrrhic victories, or how to talk about ending the occupation?"

Clearly he hasn't. "Out Now" was never going to happen. Defunding is never going to happen.

When the Peace Activists learn to lead on what Americans clearly say they want, then this war will end. Americans wanted a deadline in that supplemental. Too bad the Peace Activists didn't fight for that. The country would have followed.

I do not know who switched the focus from Murtha's disengagement to instant defunding - but whoever did it should be seriously questioned because it's just another diversion from actually ending the war.
