You are aguing that it would fine and dandy to have American troops in Iraq fifty years from now? That it would not be a “quagmire”? Is that really an argument you want to make?
I dare say most Americans would have preferred not to have been in Europe fighting the cold war for the last fifty years. Nor do they want to spend the next fifty in Iraq fighting a mideast cold war.
The last fifty years in Europe was a quagmire. It was not a good thing that we were there. We’ve been stuck there, and we haven’t been able to leave for a long, long time.

OK. My bad.
I took the sense of humor test. I scored a 70%. That’s a C-.
That’s a fascinating theory, Doug. I suppose if we pulled our troops out of Germany, the country would devolve into a violent sectarian civil conflict.
