So, the Iraqi government recognizes that it will need to apply some sort of anmesty to its citizens who resented the presence of the US military on sovereign Iraqi soil. Kinda like you would feel if someone invaded America as some sort of so-called "international police action." The amnesty thing, if you think about it for a moment, will be necessary.
Now, what will you neocons, who do not distinguish between the terms "insurgency" and "terrorism" think about that? Will you like the fine new country of Iraq that we've created?

Are these your thoughts, or did you read this somewhere. Either way, I believe amnesty is/will be necessary.
We have to face the fact we lost this war. Just like Vietnam.
