In addition...basically the insurgency is isolated to 5% of the land mass and involves a very small percentage of the Iraqi population...but non the less represents a thorn in the side of the occupying coalition. In answer to the thread topic...as Colin stated...the war was over in the first few weeks of the invasion...so no...we are not losing the war. Will the mission in Iraq be accomplished? Yes...in a decade or more...providing the American people do not withdraw their support...which I regretfully fear they will.
