Jebe, apparently you are still stuck in park... With the rise of al Qaeda membership, it's re-established communications network, it's increased efficiency and proficiency in attacking, the rise of the Taliban.... you really think that diverting everything into Iraq was the right course.

Paul's position is that the army should have retrained as surgical strike units with massive air cover, as opposed to invading an already contained and heavily surveiled enemy. I doubt that RP would just withdraw without putting a more targeted and less cost intensive plan into action. The one the should have been finished first.
