ISG - no military withdrawal, let's TALK instead...!

sure, let's talk with syria and iran NOW, AFTER things have gone completely to hell in iraq... let's eat cold crow and push a diplomatic initiative with two countries that we have consistently and routinely demonized, as recently as two days ago...

A draft report on strategies for Iraq, which will be debated here by a bipartisan commission beginning Monday, urges an aggressive regional diplomatic initiative that includes direct talks with Iran and Syria but sets no timetables for a military withdrawal, according to officials who have seen all or parts of the document.

un-friggingly-believable... by the time they finish having the discussion about how to arrange the chairs around the table, there'll be nothing left in iraq to worry about...
