2. And General McCaffrey says we're there another 3 years?!

From the end of the article:

Retired Army General Barry McCaffrey, a ground commander in the 1990-1991
Gulf War, said he's trying to remain optimistic but thinks domestic support for the war will evaporate within 36 months.

Did I read that correctly? Please, tell me I'm wrong. Please, someone tell me he didn't just say that we'd still be fighting this war three years hence, during which time domestic support will evaporate.

I parsed that wrong, right?
