A gradual pull-back will be the worst option - it can put the remaining forces to much greater danger. Luckily it seems it's not to be adopted.
Then the left-over is stay flat, more troops or total withdrawl. Bush will never admit his failure and request a total withdrawl, soldiers in Iraq won't because they don't want to sacrifice for nothing (a noble but unwise reason). Stay-flat won't resolve the increasing insurgency issue.
Therefore, a temp increase in troops is the most rational solution, although not favored. The important thing is to set a firm timeline and stick to it. After 3-6 months if peace are not in place, IA are not ready, then we should just all leave..... Well, Bush won't make this kind of promise either.

No we don't need more troops in Iraq,sending more troops.Won't solve a freakin thing over there. Saddam is burning in hell,along with his sons. What they need to do is find out if Bin Laden is dead or alive.
If he's alive which is highly unlikely,they form a plan.To trap him and then kill him,then leave Iraq. America may be the most powerful country on the face of the earth. But we can't solve their problems,they have to learn.To do it themselves as a new government,we can't keep leading them by their hand.

If Bush Jr was more like his Daddy this war would have been done and over in 3 months. 525,000 soldiers and sweep in clean up and get out.
Desert Storm there were 525,000 troops. And, was the most successful war in the history of our country.

Bush ignored the commanders when they requested more troops before the war started and in the early part. He, being a drunk AWOL Air National Guard no-show, knew better.
So now the chickens have come home to roost. Now, more troops = more targets. Bush should have been a Union general in the Civil War. Inept to a staggering degree.

No, Bush landed a jet on a aircraft carrier and said we won the war. The war is over he said. Why are we sending more troops if we won?
I think we should make a real circle around the terrorists. If it goes into Pakistan or India or wherever make a real circle around the terrorists. Don't use numbers but use intelligence and counter measures. I do not believe the usual ground combat approach works here. I believe that approach just kills more Americans.
