I hope that they might be willing to put a little more troops on the ground. Please

While that would be nice, I suspect this is the more operative factor: having
Howard and Dubya re-elected and Blair still in place.

If that's true as of Nov. 3, what happened a week or so ago in Samarra will
be happening in all the hotspots in Iraq.

If Blair, Dubya and Howard are at the controls, there probably won't be a need for
many new troops from abroad. The ones on the ground and the increasing ranks of Iraqi
military will have the terrorists in Iraq soiling their pajamas.
The terrorists be mostly feeding worms/plants before the elections in Iraq in Jan. 2005.

I know but I just love those Aussie. And yes that operation in Sammara did happen.
