My name is garysher and I agree with this prediction. | I believe one of the generals once stated 70 years or so. I would have to look that up to find the quote.

Level up: 18%, 85 Points needed | | Here is the quote I was looking for, but I was wrong. it was not a soldier or military man who said it. It was Newt Gingrich who said we would be in Iraq for decades and decades. do you just love how he laughs at the idea?? Newt Gingrich - Winning the Future

"I believe, by the summer of `06, there will be a lot fewer American casualties. By some time in `07, we will be basically out of policing the cities totally. We will be there as a reserve force."
Thanks for coming Newt
