US Strategy in Iraz not working....what about three years into the American Revolution?

All the power political people in the US now say the strategy in Iraq is not working. Of course, that is a day-to-day assessment. What they do not realize is this is a long, long war, this war on terrorism. It may last longer than the American Revolution that lasted, what, eight years? This war most likely will last 20, maybe 30 years. Any other estimate will be wrong. And all along the way there will be changes in strategy. What the US and the world cannot do is stop doing something. There are evil people in the world with evil intent. Always, but always, the United States battle cry for this war should be that bit from the US Declaration of Independence about all men being entitled to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. If that is always the goal, the war will be won and for the betterment of all people.
