Hillary: "We Cannot Win Iraq War" UPDATE: al Qaeda Supporters Celebrate Hillary's Comments

Cannot win? Hell, we've already won! Seriously, the Democrats are still fighting last year's war.

It's like the two Democratic candidates are running for the Presidency of France. First one to surrender wins!

Reuters:

Democrat Hillary Clinton charged on Monday the Iraq war may cost Americans $1 trillion and add strain to the sagging US economy as she made her case for a prompt US troop pullout from a war "we cannot win."
The question is no longer if we can win, but what kind of country will we leave in the wake of our victory? If Clinton and Obama get their way, it will be a hallow victory indeed.

UPDATE: Friend of the Jawa jveritas happened to be cruising the most popular online support forum for al Qaeda and noted this reaction to Hillary's statement that we cannot win in Iraq:

“Moukhles Moutaalek”: You dogs, you sacrifice the future of your country so you can win a presidential election. If America withdraws from Iraq this will give a clear signal that America can be defeated and America will suffer from attacks all over the world. Taste the flavor of treason you Americans, I am mocking you, may allah put the in authority the traitors from their own skin, the slaves of thrones.

“Younis Al Shami”: In America's fight against the people of Mesopotamia, America will forget the horrors of Vietnam

“Hode”: Allah protect Sheikh Ossama the conqueror of the Americans from the plots of the enemies

One need not have supported the initial invasion of Iraq to understand that when we do leave it must be on winning terms. See Osama bin Laden's "strong horse" theory to understand why we cannot lose anywhere.

Thanks to Doug.

UPDATE: "even if it descended into ethnic cleansing."
