While the Polich government supports us, the majority of the Polish people don't. The same virus infects all of Europe.

I say replace them with more of the South American troops on their bases. When the fighting started it was the El Salvadorans, Chileans and Guatemalans along with some American support troops who did most the fighting. The Phillipinos and Thais did well at another base too.

A non-reported story is what happened in Najaf when the Mahdi attacked the 'Death Squads' at the beginning of the uprising. They made several fervent human-wave assaults against rows of concertina wire and concrete barriers. Many hundreds if not thousands of them were gunned down in the first two days. Ammo resupply was an issue on several occasions. The Mahdis only success was in Kut where they drove the CPA back to the Ukranian base. The Mahdi took very heavy losses attacking Coalition bases and haven't launched an assault since.
