Define 'Winning'
John McCain: "This [surge] strategy has succeeded. And we are winning in Iraq."
Iraqi police fatally shot a Kurdish politician in one of Iraq's most volatile provinces as he entered police headquarters Saturday to settle a dispute over the arrest of a colleague, officials said. ...Tension has been rising between Kurds and Arabs in the north because of Kurdish demands for incorporating the northern oil city of Kirkuk and other areas into their self-ruled region of northern Iraq. Kurdish demands for greater control beyond their autonomous region have risen since the 2003 war, and has caused some Arabs in the region to flee their homes.
What's your definition of "winning," Senator McCain? What's your plan for bringing political stability to Iraq?
