I'm not sure where things stand in Iraq, but if these are the numbers put out by the Pentagon (which you would think would be the source most likely to be cautious in their reporting) it doesn't look to me like we are "winning" the war. And of course these are just the attacks in Iraq, the attacks worldwide more than tripled last year.
Maybe new Deputy Prime Minister of Iraq (and interim Oil Minister) Chalabi will make all the difference and turn things around. Yeah, right, that's the ticket. I'm not saying that we should leave, but is this really the kind of government our soldiers should be dying for? I think that's a legitimate question.
