Eriposte reponds to this earlier
post on Iraq. His basic point is that it's important to do it right, and he lists all of the reasons. I don't think really rebuts anything I said. I think it's important to "do it right" - I just question whether there's anything much we can do. I think insurgents, whether they number 5,000, 50,000, or 500,000 will continue to hack away at our soldiers and attack any institutions and "collaborators" we install. I just don't know if there's anything we can do about it.
