So are you saying this will be the longest deployment of US troops in modern history, maybe history period? That's absolutely insane. It will kill thousands more americans, Hundreds of thousands of the "enemy" and firmly Bankrupt this nation. Utter gobblygook! not to mention stirring up thousands of more terrorists. I wonder what geniouses thought this up. Must have something to do with war profiteering. Here's the truth: get our interests out of the middle east and the threats will go away. Those ragheads have to sell the oil to someone, like the highest bidder. At the prices we are paying that has to be us. Why am I the only one that sees this clearly. Leave the middle east and the al queda threats will be taken care of by the Iraqis them selves. Hasn't that been shown recently? These are the ramblings of neocons like Richard Perle, who think the only good Arabs are dead ones. BTW, you saw the poll I assume!
