Okay. Get tough and do what?

Ping me if someone provides you with any coherent specifics.

Yes, I would like to know as well. Has anyone specifics or was this just idle chatter?

What is tough? General Sherman was tough. Stalin was tough. I do not know what GWB will do but I can speak for myself. We know that the loyalists are men between the ages of 16 and, say 45. Have them register for ID's and wear a ID tag. All men, after a certain date not registered should be considered dangerous, shot, or taken prisoner and placed in a prison camp. Villages where there is a reluctance to register or cooperate should be advised that the village will be razed, destroyed after a certain date, and then carried out.

This type of effort must be escalated with every effort by the insurgency to thwart it.

We can't turn back because the vacuum would be filled by those that we will just have to fight again and this time they will have $2 trillion worth of oil to fund their plans.
