Of course the US won't lose the war, because the US has nukes, and push come to shove, that could end it all. So the issue isn't winning and losing. Its odd because all of a sudden, an awkward patriotism has overcome me--NOT BECAUSE I AM FOR THE WAR, but because all of a sudden, I fear for the American troops over there--I just picture them lined up, marching toward this bloody encounter in Baghdad and I start to feel a little sympathy for them.

No?

I mean, when the US generals are starting to openly admit to the US military underestimating the opposition, I start to worry.
