Indeed, all this blathering about Iraq, etc? Honestly, by everyone's admission (and especially repeated statements from military officials) the War in Iraq and/or against Terrorism and whatever-the-hell people like to call it is a "different kind of war, fought in different ways against a different kind of enemy".
Doesn't it follow then, that the concepts of "Victory" and "Defeat" are different? I mean, there's this talk about "Surrender" in Iraq. What is surrender? Surrender is, historically, the leaders from each power coming out, settling on conditions if any.
Do you honestly think that Osama bin Laden is going to come out and discuss victory terms even if the US were to "surrender"? That's a completely ridiculous concept.
"Victory" or "Defeat" in Iraq are things mostly undefined, nebulous and just get a lot of lip-service without much thought to the actual point at which these are actually reached.
