"End the War"

Mohammed at Iraq the Model is exactly correct. Every time I see war protesters with their "End the War" signs, I am flabbergasted. How do they expect the war to end? If the U.S. pulls troops from Iraq, how will that stop extremist Sunni or Shia groups from attacking each other? How will that stop the neo-Bathists from trying to reinstitute a Saddam-styled government? How will that stop Al Qaeda in Iraq from trying to install a repressive regime based on a perversion of Islam? How will that stop Iran from supplying weapons to militia groups? How will that cause the militias to put down their arms and join the government?

How will that secure the tenants of liberal democracy?
