Looks like Poland isn't in Iraq for the long haul:
Poland could withdraw Iraq troops
The "long haul" mght be the problem. For whatever reasons someone accepts as being why we are in Iraq, it would appear possible to say "we came, we won, we go home now". There doesnt seem to be a war to fight there anymore. There IS fighting but no war. Whatever reason there was for going in does not seem to be the reason to stay and fight. We are looking like the kid who doesnt want to leave the ballfield after the game is over, and is yelling at all the other kids who are going home.

Someone tried to bait me in another group by saying "Kerry has a plan for winning the war, by pulling out. And everyone knows thats NOT how to win a war". I replied, "of course it is. Say we won and go home". Maybe the problem is that Im in too many gaming newsGroups. Gamers tend to have a different idea of what the rules are for winning a war. I hope Bush isnt a game player.
