Oh, I almost forgot:

Henry also stated:

"It is a miracle that the victory in Iraq was the fastest in modern history."

I think this may be a bit of an overstatement, all things considered. I would hardly call our military effort there a "victory" in light of the causalties we have suffered since taking Baghdad, and the insurgency that we continue to combat.

We may very well be militarily in "control" of the country, (and I use the term "control" loosely), Hussein is in custody and no longer in power, but the war is far from "over". Our troops continue to fight, and defend themselves, and suffer casualties, every day. That does not indicate to me that the war is "over" or that we have "won".

The war will be "over" and we can claim "victory" when shots are no longer fired and bombings are no longer aimed at our troops. Until then, the war is very much "ongoing", and we have not yet "won".


It aint "over", till its over.
