		<description>tactical  wins/losses may  continue  for decades longer  but the  telos  remains.
what it may be,  we do not know; we, perforce, infer it. it is establishment of a fourth state; probably in syrian desert.  the other  three states would become US protectorates.
if  this is the goal,  US may be willing  to  lose another  50,000 soldiers in order to  obtain it.
what is  50,000 dead  to US  ruling class?  and if  the US  underclass doesn't want to fight , US can hire other nationals to fight for the plutocrats.  and pay them much less than amers.
thus i urge iraqis  to resist  the occupation passively. it may also fail, but appears a better  option  than to bleed  on and on, only to utterly fail.
this has hap'd to pals.  palestine may not ever rise again. thank u</description>
