Like cockroaches, everytime the insurgents are exterminated (great word, huh?) in one place, they just crawl back in the wooodwork and appear somewhere else. If we are going to fight this war, the consensus among all the military talking heads that I have heard is that we need more boots on the ground. Bush has said to his Generals that he will give them what they want but implies that he doesn't want them to ask for more, so they don't. George W. Bush needs to stop playing politics with our solder's lives.
Gen. David Grange and Gen. Marx on CNN now say that troops will need to stay in Iraq at least 4-5 years.
4-5 years is a very optimistic prediction!!

The question was "What is the
minimum time needed?"
We passed the minimum time needed the day we invaded Iraq.
