The Iraq War was over long ago. What has been going on for the |
|
past 4+ years is an armed occupation. I would think informed Dems on a progressive site would have that basic understanding.
As long as the phrase "Iraq War" remains in the public consciousness our generally ill-informed populace will continue thinking of it as something that can be won or lost. Like a war. And withdrawing would be regarded as a loss of some sort. Discontinuing an occupation is an altogether different concept.
I am surprised our candidates continue to fail to make that distinction.
