Do We Have The Will To Win?
By Linda Chavez
September 15, 2007

Page 2 of 2

Our losses in Korea and Vietnam did not ultimately jeopardize American security. But a loss in Iraq will have far greater consequences. Iran, which is on the verge of becoming a nuclear power, will be emboldened by our failure to win against a relatively small but ruthless enemy in Iraq. At the very least, we can expect a protracted and perilous new Cold War against a less rational enemy than we faced in the Soviet Union.

It is difficult to see how we might turn this around, surely not unless Americans wake up to the danger.
