Fred Kaplan at Slate charifies Rep. John Murtha’s proposal, noting that what Murtha wants is not a “withdrawal” from Iraq but a “redeployment,” and that no matter what people say to the contrary, it will happen: It almost doesn’t matter whether withdrawing or redeploying the troops is a good idea; it’s simply going to happen because there is no way for it not to happen (short of a major act of political will, such as reviving the draft or keeping troops on the battlefield beyond reasonable endurance). This because, in short, the Army is at a breaking point, and the Army leadership knows it.
