2. If we want to look at it that way, it works for me--let the transition to peacetime begin.

6. Great. Now we can bring the troops home, repeal the Patriot Act,
break Homeland Security into its component parts, close Gitmo, and restore the primacy of law in America.

I'm so relieved.

7. 'Mission accomplished' redux,nothing will change from this but the spin, the downward spiral goes on
The empiric wars will not end, the leviathan police state will not be dismantled. Indeed, both will be escalated. The destruction of the USA's internal way of life and civil liberties will continue, the erosion of the populace's social compact will not halted, and the pace of these unwindings will, in fact, increase.
