Enough of the President’s Iraq Speech has been leaked that I will go ahead and declare that although I rarely agree with Bush I support this surge.
It may be that 21,000 troops are too few to make a difference, but I support even the smallest chance that we can help move the Iraqi government to a tipping point were they can maintain public order.
I think it is worth the investment to try and deny the terrorists a victory.
To leave Iraq unstable, and the radicals validated, would make the world unsafe for hundreds of millions of people, and much more expensive to correct in the future.
