Rumsfeld says we're not 'winning' the war in Iraq:
"The United States and the coalition forces, in my personal view, will not be the thing that will defeat the insurgency. So, therefore, winning or losing is not the issue for 'we,' in my view, in the traditional, conventional context of using the word 'winning' and 'losing' in a war. The people that are going to defeat that insurgency are going to be the Iraqis."
Doesn't this sound an awful lot like Vietnam? Just asking. Gen. Myers jumped in right after Rummy's semi-incoherent candid comments to contradict his boss. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said in no uncertain terms that we are winning. http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/N26575946.htm
