Current ROE's are complex. They're putting our troops at risk.

The "dust off the bombers" comment is just hyperbole on my part. It's a metaphor for us changing our conduct of the war to use sensible tactics that protect our troops and kills the enemy. Mosques that fire on our troops are legitimate targets.

The ROE we have over there now...in my opinion is the result of political correctness.

There is NOTHING that is PC about war or combat. Yet we are trying to fight that way.

I had more briefings by JAG in Iraq over how to conduct ourselves under the ROE than any other class instruction I had...it was incredible.

I understand the base desire. I made the comment this way the other day.
