Has anyone seen or heard anything on what unit was involved in this ambush?

This is a very easy fix. The problem though is that our politicians do not have the spine to do the dirty work. If we fought WWII this way, then we would still be fighting Germany or speaking German.

How do you do this? Its very easy. Its kind of like Boot Camp. Instead of punishing one person. Punish the entire platoon. Here is an example. 1946 in Germany a small town had some resistance, and ended up killing 3 or 4 of our guys. We ended up shelling the town for the next 24 hours. Guess what? We never lost a soldier there again.

The people will flush the thugs out when it gets too hot to handle. All we have to do is turn up the heat. However, our gutless politicians will never allow our generals to do this because they are more concerned with about the people of Iraq then our own troops. That is the sad painful truth.

Has the CIC made a statement yet?

Has anyone in the house or senate made a statement yet?

How can this be??? Anti-war people say there are NO AlQaeda in Iraq fro us to be fighting a War on Terror there. Remember, this is supposed to be an excuse Bush used to invade Iraq.
