''Parallels Between U.S. Occupation of Iraq and U.S. Involvement in Vietnam'' (tags)

Iraqi guerrillas are most likely aware that they will not be able to crush the U.S. military occupation in Iraq.

General Abizaid admitted as much, recently warning, "The goal of the enemy is not to defeat us militarily.
