Money quote(s):
"(W)ars, like history, do not stop when America decides it no longer wants to be involved. This is worth remembering, both in terms of what is taking place in Iraq today as well as what might take place in Afghanistan in 2014. So by all means, say U.S. involvement in the war has ended. But think carefully before saying the war has ended."
Conflict in Iraq is multilateral and the co-belligerents are both internal and external. Taking just one side (ours) off the battlefield means only that we no longer have much influence over what occurs there.
