Aix,

Simple to you neocons, but the subject's a bit deeper than that. Why don't you describe what victory looks like, and why that is a viable option.

Some folks knowledgable in international matters like this are skeptical that victory is possible at all, even under permanent U.S. occupation. Any number of observers might agree with that. All those who reach the same conclusion from observing these events isn't the same as being on the terrorists' side. Maybe anything beyond the simplest reasoning skill is too much above your head?
