No matter what you personally think about AARP, their current issue has a lengthy interview with Colin Powell. You might want to read it before you make irrational, unsubstantiated statements. I believe Powell is credible and his accounts of the activities in the White House leading up to the Iraq invasion are very interesting.

I do not think the general public wants to see a retreat. However, I also feel that the Iraqui leaders would, if not "threatened" with a withdrawal, continue to allow coalition troops to carry the heavy load ad infinitum rather than step up to the plate. Therefore, setting an ultamatum may not be a bad idea. The date could always be changed leter if circumstances change.
