I guess the generals are feeling that the Iraqi's can run with the ball. Also they know that our presence is making things worse and not better. All we are doing is spreading resentment here and making more people join the insurgency. The quicker we hand off the protection tasks to the Iraqis the sooner the insurgency will collapse. This is the funny part of the article though:
A USA Today/CNN/Gallup poll published in USA Today said 32 percent of respondents believed the United States could not win the war in Iraq. Another 21 percent said it was possible the United States could win but they did not believe it would.
Um, hmm we already won the actual land war part of it and the elections showed that we are winning the political war. So what does USA Today call a "win" anyway? If we kill every insurgent in the country? Or if we make Iraq to 51st state? Maybe we can make Iraq a fiefdom of the Bush family and then USA Today will call it a "win." I love how these polls are manipulated.
