(8,974 posts)We could have continued to throw more trillions at it, occupy Iraq indefinitely while tying up a disproportionate share of our military preparedness, and as before bribe warlords to side with us whenever a surge was deemed appropriate. Forever, but at what cost? One thing we could never do was withdraw and expect Sunnis, Shia, and Kurds to unify in national solidarity, not when they have been warring for hundreds of years. McCain and others live in a fools paradise. And blaming another for their earlier miscalculation is worse than lying.
