Let me put the question to the room: How do you think the Iraq War experience will change the American language?
"Redeploy" has already become a euphemism for "retreat"
"I support the troops" now is code for "I don't support the mission"
"Meatgrinder" now refers to four-year campaigns with under 10% of the Allied casualty total of one Western Front battle (Passchendaele), with consequent adjustment in western resolve levels.
