  And this, whether it is motivated by obstinacy, denial or a sober calculation of the strategic stakes in Iraq, is a good thing.

  The new American commander in Iraq, General David Petraeus, must report to Congress in mid-September on how his campaign is going.

  Advocates of quitting say that after losing more than 3,000 soldiers and spending more than $300 billion America has already failed and should therefore depart.
