Lets begin with "the terrorists will take over if we leave"...the US military did simulations recently that showed that the expected outcome of the US leaving Iraq was the region splitting into to three distinct countries controlled not by Al Qaida but rather by that regions dominant ethnic/religious group.
Basically this is the same outcome that the democrats have put forth as a plan....
THe fact is my boy that Al Qaida is a itsy bitsy teeny weeny part of the fighters that are involved in the current civil war. The BS argument that the terrorists will somehow take over the country and set up a gvt that is nothing more then a mouth piece for OBL is just that BS. Al Qaida is already persona non grata in many parts of Iraq and local tribes have been working on pushing them out....I know that flies in the face of your armchair GI Joe fantasy wherein Al Qaida is somehow "COBRA" made real but facts is facts.
To be sure there are no crystal balls but given then outcomes forseen by the miltary's simulations, the opinions of leading thinkers on terrorism and Iraq and the simple fact that they have always been a vocal and violent minority...kind of like the righwing christian nutjob "Army of God"....the idea that they could actually take over the coutnry is asinine my super spinning republican friend.
