I just don't see a complete removal of forces from that area any time soon. The terrorist timetable argument was used before the surge in Iraq. And it's a flawed argument. Terrorists are going to be around whether we stay or leave.
But these countries are taking advantage of us and they need to know that we aren't going to be around forever and that they need to start taking care of their own countries. We cannot continue to beat our heads against the wall. The american people NEED to know when they can expect to see their families come home. Not having an exit strategy is fool hearted. And an exit strategy should not be open ended.
