We're stuck for awhile:
The Post makes another interesting point—even if opponents of the war get their way, a total pullout from Iraq would take almost a year to execute. According to one official, any withdrawal would have to go through southern Iraq (to Kuwait), and it would take "at least 3,000 large convoys some 10 months to remove U.S. military gear and personnel alone."
Of course, this assumes an orderly withdrawal. Seems to me that we were able
to withdraw from Vietnam a lot more quickly when we had to, leaving everything behind, including those loyal to the U.S.
