Et tu, Euro? But you have a point, now that the Baathis are coming back, and a Baathi general is supervising the offensive in Falluja. Modern secularists with no time for religious fanatics.

See my post to Dog.

In a way, I totally share your sentiments expressed on the other thread. Yet, I realise that this is a very hairy situation.

I will wait before I jump to any conclusions.

Who knows? If these Iraqifization ideas ends up being implemented, they might end up being a smashing success.

I must admit that I sometimes feel like the coalition should take a page out of the Thai playbook and clean up the mess once and for all. Make a parking lot out of the "holy" shrines in Najaf. Drop a MOAB on top of the bastards in Fallujah. But, then again how well has similar strategies worked for the Russians so far?

What do you think?
