While I've been against the whole endeavor in Iraq, I've always believed the US should stay in Iraq until the work is done. It's sort of the "you broke it, you buy it" strategy. We are responsible for the well-being of an entire nation and we can't just cut and run.
John Kerry's op-ed follows that line of reasoning. Kerry realizes the stakes are high in Iraq and we can't just leave. But as the mounting death toll is showing, we can't do this alone either. The Bushies are trying to make nice with the UN and nations like France to get some international help, but I think the "appeasers" will for the most part allow Bush to twist in the wind until November when there might be a change in leadership here.
Kerry shows at least through this op-ed that he is not a weak-kneed liberal, but a liberal realist. I can deal with that.
