They should come home from Iraq and we should work closely with other countries to take out the terrorists that are hiding all over the world.

Whether you agree or not that we should of started this war or not, I don't think we can leave. Look what happened when we left Vietnam, the country became exactly what we feared and all those soliders died in vain. If they came home now, the terrorist would declare victory first, not us (Which would give them the nerve and idea that we are entirely beatable now). While at the same time, I don't agree we can fight this war all by ourselves. We need to seek support from the world, and truely make the war on terror a war on the ideology of extreamist.
How do you do that? You convince the world you are the good guys, the leaders of freedom. You do this by not calling everybody evil, and generally practicing what you preach. America as yet, has a image problem in which we aren't clearly the good guys (You know, from the questionable stuff we've done). We can win this war, but not on our own, after all we have other enemies to think about and who exactly has our back (Basicly we need the support of the world to prove that we truely encourage freedom, and thus make the idea of terrorism not only evil but absurb).
