It makes sense though. If there was someone in Iraq right now who wanted us to leave and didn't use violence, why not say we decided to leave because of him and not the hundreds of guys with guns and bombs? It makes you a hero and not a pussy, and gives heroism to the peaceful guy rather than the radicals.
