Is "No end in sight" the best way to describe the U.S. occupation of Iraq?

Question

I don't say "war" because we defeated the Iraqi army 4 years ago and are technically in a state of occupation, poorly managing an insurgency and civil sectarian war there now.

What is the exit strategy?

Answer 1

Mission accomplished.....no wait we are turning a corner....no wait they are in their death throws.........oh hell

Answer 2

Had it been sanctioned by ability of UN(may nicely be the sanction replaced into obtained 'below duress', it would not were an occupation in spite of the undeniable fact that that's been there defying the international opinion and non-cooperation of even the nearest allies. And as well to not one of the excuses whey it replaced into released have became out to be nicely depending.The mere plea of the electorate now to not leave is because of the actual undeniable actuality that by ability of occupying and causing all forms of demages united states has no longer left the Iraquees in a really unenviable problem the position at the same time as they hate the occupation they re afraid that the submit-vacation era might want to be the deluge.the finest way out may be for stationing a Peace Keepig stress,ideally of Arabic forces at the moment.

Answer 3

I guess there is no end in site for Germany, Japan, and South Korea either. We are still in these countries after Word War 2 and the Korean War. So it has been over 50+ years now. I believe we are still in Kuwait as well.

What is our exit strategy from these countries?

We will probably be there for 50+ years as well.

Answer 4

Iraq has been taken for a long time now. All that remains is Baghdad. Baghdad is now in a state of full blown civil war with no end in sight. The smartest thing the U.S government could do is pull out of Iraq.

Answer 5

Under that description, we are also occupying the DMZ in N. and S. Korea, Japan, Germany, Italy, Saudi Arabia, Guam, Puerto Rico and Bosnia.

Face it. We may have a troop presence in Iraq for the rest of our lifetime. So long as we have troops there, they seem to draw the majority of the terrorist's fire.

Answer 6

I think that is the only way to describe it at this time, their is no way out except to pull out or to increase the troops to about 400, 000 and totally neutralize the insurgents.

Answer 7

Sense you have a limited knowledge of war, that would be an astute observation on your part.

Answer 8

"No end in sight" is the best way to describe anything that requires rolling your sleeves up and finishing the project.
It is a phrase which usually precedes quitting - and, hence, failure.

Answer 9

Isn't that a good question? The truth is nobody knows. Either way people will be screwed.

Answer 10

Correct...
Maybe in 20 years.....
