What I find absurd about your whole take on this is, when there was success in the surge you were silent. A few skirmishes pop up and you're ready to jump on it claiming the surge is a failure. There are always setbacks. There will be times where violence erupts. Sort of like in Washington DC. But you operate with a political ignorance that has an agenda and not interested in what's best or the truth.
