Rumsfeld is wrong, terrorists can win militarily

In an article about reaction to Murtha’s call to withdraw troops from Iraq, Defense Secretary Donald Rumself is quoted as saying, “The enemy hears a big debate in the United States, and they have to wonder: ‘Maybe all we have to do is wait and we’ll win. We can’t win militarily.’ They know that.”. Really? I thought history was chock fill of examples of terrorists/freedom fighters sticking it out for *years* until the occupier/liberator tired of the situation and pulled out. I think they know they *can* win, and we know it too.
