1. the surge was SUPPOSED to bring stability to baghdad.

i gues that's gone the way of the weapons of mass destruction.

all greater peace in anbar proves -- is that the iraqi people are not and never have been married to al queada.

2. Apparently, there are still some Iraqis left in Iraq.

The surge will have succeeded when that is no longer the case.

7. What can one say any more.

It's all the same, all the time. There have been no strategic changes in the longest time in either direction. All that can be said is that when it does change, it will be for the worse as far as the US is concerned. This is simply not "winnable" other than through genocide.
