Since your weblog has a wide readership, and you are making several assertions of fact, it would be nice to see some citations to bolster the assertions.

You say: &quot;Suddenly,  we are not in control of the situation on the ground. US forces have  withdrawn from city after city across the center of Iraq. Faluja, Karbala,  Ramadi, Najaf and large sections of Baghdad are in the hands of militants  whose entire existence is based on a desire to kill Americans and drive  us from their lands.&quot;

I expect this is true for Fallujah.  The reports I heard from Najaf seem to indicate the insurgents are not welcome there, and there is some support for U.S. and ING forces actions to push them out.  The fact that Sistani and his Shiite base don&#039;t want U.S. troops in their cities is understandable, but they have also made statements in support of the rule of law, and against fighting the government &quot;for now...&quot;

The administration and the military can and should lower the profile of U.S. troops in Iraq (keep them on bases, only send them out when necessary) - so &quot;withdrawal from city after city&quot; may be the appearance of retreat when it is actually a sound strategy to convince the average Iraqi that U.S. troops are not &quot;occupiers&quot; - but only plan to stay until security improves and ING and IP forces can manage on their own.

If you have a source for the assertion that &quot;large sections of Baghdad are in the hands of militants ... desire to kill Americans&quot; - I would like to see it.  Perhaps you mean Sadr City?  There are reports that the Iraqi government is undermining support in Sadr city for the Sadr movement, by promising millions in reconstruction contracts to local tribal chiefs.

In my opinion, at this point the best strategy is for U.S. forces to keep a low profile, and only provide &quot;backbone&quot; to the Iraqi government in conflicts they cannot handle.  That will seem like ceding control to the locals, but isn&#039;t that the end goal anyway?  Who cares who runs Fallujah, as long as they stop trying to undermine the government, security, and the rule of law?</description>

One thing I do notice, is that there is no discussion about the Iraqi civilians who have died in the same time period. From what I recall, US troops have accidentially shot or killed several thousand by now, plus the insurgents have killed a significant number on top of that. To quote Regan, &quot;Are you better off today than you were four years ago?&quot; although many Iraqi&#039;s hated Saddam for good reason, its getting to the point where people are going to be wistefully look back to his regime. What&#039;s the strategy against terrorism in Iraq? Because I don&#039;t see one when I look at it. I see the opposite, lots of people becoming committed to kill Westeners.</description>

I take it as a good sign that Russia&#039;s top general says they will attack terrorists anyplace on the globe. This is the threshold of a whole new approach in the War on Terror.

The Ruskies don&#039;t worry too much about foreign complaints on how they fight wars. I look forward to some real good ass-kicking by the Ruskies on the news in the weeks and months ahead. I say they can wipe out terrorists and terrorist supporters by the thousands in each attack.
