The sad thing is that the people who advocate a unilateral withdrawal are just as ill advised as the folks who got us into this mess.

You do have a point.
In my opinion the war wasn't the wrong thing to do, it's the war plan that was wrong. Rumsfeld is a moron experimenting with a new war concept rather than playing it safe.
As it stands now, US troops will have to stay until Iraq's forces can provide enough security and the insurgents are no longer a threat or things will become much worse than they were before the war. If people think Afghanistan was a haven for terrorists, imagine what Iraq will become when the insurgents take over the country.
