Powell Says U.S. Losing in Iraq, Calls for Drawdown by Mid-2007

Former secretary of state Colin L. Powell said yesterday that the United States is losing what he described as a "civil war" in Iraq and that he is not persuaded that an increase in U.S. troops there would reverse the situation. Instead, he called for a new strategy that would relinquish responsibility for Iraqi security to the government in Baghdad sooner rather than later, with a U.S. drawdown to begin by the middle of next year.

Who are these neo-cons and hyper-Christians who continue to support this debacle?
