Yes folks, I see a definite pattern here. They attack our soldiers, we kill hordes of them, they cry ceasefire!...we ceasefire... they regroup, and the process repeats itself.
I believe there is a time for mercy, and the virtue itself should not be underestimated. But these rebellious people are begging for anhilation, and our Marines are chomping at the bit to make it happen.
I do hope the next time they call for a ceasefire, we don't treat it like a "timeout" called at a highschool football game.
The NEXT time they call for a ceasefire, that should be our cue to go finish the job and break their will to fight.
As always, a great posting Dio!

I can understand that we do not want to risk a Shiite uprising in the country but what's the point of having a ceasefire at this stage? It only allows the enemy another chance which we should not give. The problem is that in this war, we have not decimated the enemy enough.
