We win, you lose

Back when the Vietnam war was going very badly, Senator Aiken of Vt. said "let's just call it a victory and pull our troops out." A good idea but it didn't work.

Hezbollah and Iran are rejoicing in the Hezbollah victory (so-called) in Lebanon, but unlike Senator Aiken, they appear to be unwilling to pull their troops out.

They in fact make much more sense. How do you celebrate a victory, and then retreat?

This war is not yet over.
