How long before this surge deal is written off as another failure?

[The_Casual_Observer]

And when it is, what's next?

1. Just check the casualties

at www.icasualties.org. Every day the U.S. rules Iraq, the more profits the globalists make. They are in no hurry to leave.

2. self delete

[Fovea]

3. It was a failure before it started

and its stupidity is more manifest day by day.

[Hekate]

4. Mmmm -- another thousand casualties?

[Webster Green]

5. Three or four weeks ago, wasn't it?

Next is tactical nukes into Iran.

More "Shock and Awe"

6. I suppose Thomas Friedman will say "six months"

If you know what I'm saying.

7. Probably the second it starts......

none of the stateside reinforcements (entire brigades)are there yet....the first unit is in Kuwait getting ready to head north. A few battalions have gone north but the majority of the "surge troops" are still about 2 months away from entering the fight....

So I'd say + 1 day after all the troops are actually there.....
