"That's not entirely true. We could have stopped Iraq from doing anything militarily with just our airpower. Anything even remotely deemed militarily offensive in nature could have been taken out at a moments notice. We could have eliminated Saddam and his two boys without putting one single soldier on the ground in Iraq."

Maybe...but the fact is we have troops on the ground now. You want to pull them out like a bunch of lily-livered Spainards? We need to finish the job this time.

You have me confused with the politically correct wing of the Republican party. Since we are there, the first time the Iraqis fired on us using Mosques as cover, I would have turned at least ten of them into craters at a prearranged time. A show of force like that, would have let the SOBs know we met business. The town we pulled back from in Falluja. Remember? I would have leveled it after a fair, humane warning, of say about a two hour notice.

But we didn't do that did we?
