Three years ago, General Peter Schoomaker, the chief of staff of the US Army, admitted that "the war in Iraq ... cannot be won militarily by the United States". He said the "military ..will not win this," "So are we winning? Well, we're not going to win it militarily."
US Army chief: Iraq "cannot be won militarily"
Of course Bush continues to insist on "winning militarily". Harry Reid's only crime is telling the obvious truth. Telling the obvious and necessary truth is indeed "supporting the troops."
And in Iraq General David Petraeus said, "I don't think you're ever going to get rid of all the car bombs," Petraeus said. "Iraq is going to have to learn - as did, say, Northern Ireland, to live with some degree of sensational attacks."
On Monday one of those car bombs killed nine more American soliders and wounded 20.
Why is it that Bush and his supporters so hate American troops that they want more to die needlessly in this unneccessary and unwinnable war?
