heard an ABC radio news interview with a Marine officer, saying "we will not use overwhelming force" as part of this mission. this is making me a little nervous. its one thing to use indiscriminate forces against civilians - strafing crowds and the like. but it just seems like we aren't using armor and air, we are fighting these guys house to house on the ground, in the hopes of capturing the specific people involved in the attack on those 4 contractors. how many marines do we want to lose in this type of operation, in order to afford 100% protection to Fallujah residents?

Bush and Rumsfeld better get on top of this damn fast.
