Exit Strategy How to get out of the quagmire that is Iraq:

To implement this exit strategy, we will have to practice running quickly. It is further recommended that, while running, the eyes be cast down, to avoid witnessing any last-minute people trying to kill us. We will have to establish excellent communications so that the moment that final person begins dying, we can all begin running quickly at the same time, eyes cast down, quickly, to our vehicles, to get to the airport and get out of the country.

a classic condensation of the current catch-22: the US can't leave until Iraq is secure, but Iraq won't be secure until the US leaves.

well put.
