For crying out loud, no one, but *NO ONE* here is "blinking." The call has been for the use of *more* force in Fallujah, not less.

DITTOS ON THIS... Nobody is saying it would be good to let the perps and killers walk. We want the bad guys dead. Nobody is thrilled with the options. But some of us realize that a repositioning of Marines is not a defeat, not even rating a setback, just a stalling of what could have been a rather crushing blow against insurgents (ie more a missed opportunity than anything else, now they are trying a different "opportunity" to fix the problem). "This fight is not over" is the comment from one marine commander. Hear that?
