The US Millitary didn't "retreat" like running away from the battleifield but they did give up. Not by their own choice. But the liberal Americans and their politicians ordered the millitary to give up and go home. To use my sports analogy again, the fighting men where in the enemy's red zone and the coach threw in the towel and forfited the game because he didn't want to see them play smashmouth football anymore.
