2. They believe so much in media spin
That it will be spun as "winning" and "victory" no matter what actually happens.

4. Question should be "Who will recognize that we lost?"
The politicians and generals are still trying to find a way to provide something that looks like a "victory" to cover their sorry asses.

Of course, they are blaming the "treasonous left" for the loss already and striking up the band for a chorus of the "We Coulda' Won" song.

5. An agreement needs to be signed
Edited on Mon Dec-11-06 10:37 AM by DemReadingDU
by the winners and losers.

Who are the winners? Bush? America?

Who are the losers? The terrorists? Which ones? Al-Qaeda? Osama bin Laden? Sadaam?

7. I think it will be the Iraqi's, themselves, who will determine the outcome.
They are stronger and more determined than given credit. They want their lives to settle and will conform to agreements that EU will provide.

We will be kicked out, and France, Russia, and Iran will jockey for position in joint control. US corp control will hang in there by convert threads until F,R,and Iran can negotiate profitable agreements.

That's how it looks from this side of the keyboard.
