Reply #87: That's the entire point

Stopping the death and destruction by letting the Iraqi people SEE that we're leaving. They're fighting the occupation, right? If we begin pulling out and turning over regions of the country, there won't be any occupation to fight. Then we can turn over more and more regions, as quickly as circumstances on the ground permit. That has been what many Democrats have supported for 2 years now. That position got drowned out and distorted by the anti-war "out now" noise. It finally has some traction, a real opportunity to end this war, and I'm not going to let it pass me by. I am not willing to do nothing and watch the whole thing go to hell, just to prove I was right all along. If you are, then I guess that's your choice.
