"We are talking about cease-fires, and maybe signing some things that say they won't conduct operations against the government of Iraq or against coalition forces," Odierno said from Camp Victory in Baghdad. "We believe a large majority of groups within Iraq are reconcilable and are now interested in engaging with us. But more importantly, they want to engage and become a part of the government of Iraq."

No Steve C I see it as the Jihadists are weak, and wanting a cease fire. They would only come forward and ask this if they knew we they cannot defeat us. Is that not how you see it through your rose colored glasses? I see it as democracy prevailing, and the enemy losing, but I'm sure you can spin it into making America look bad.

You people are so wrapped up in team politics that you will never see the elephant in the room......
You can not believe anything you see on the news....gone are the days of unbiased new casts and the free delivery of information...it is all about money and red vs blue
it is pathetic can't anyone think for themselves...look at both sides of an issue and decide for themselves....
NOBODY trusts America and will not" work" with us and for good reason

and according to Cheney last year the major hostilities are ending. too many administration lies... I hope a reconciliation happens but lets face facts. we are going to be in Iraq for the next 50 years due to the complete bungling of this administration. yes I would call that a loss.

Victory and peace are completely different goals.
Victory may or may not result in peace - seldom a lasting one.
With peace, the killing stops.
Is this not our goal?

So you're either saying that:
(1) Iraqis are the peace-loving diplomats you put down "liberals" for allegedly saying they are,or
(2) The desire for force is so bad Bush is probably right when he says violence will most likely escalate.
Either way,its time to get out of there!
