Doubtful. Duhhbya is too worried about his image in the world to let Rummy do that.
No, the President is one hell of a lot smarter than you to give in to a knee-jerk reaction.
Let me splain it to you nice and clear...our precision strikes are tearing up the Thugs with minimal casaulties to civilians and collateral damage. This is precisely what the Thugs fear. That is why they hide behind the civilians. That is why they are butchering their own people as well as our troops that they capture. They are trying to get us to play the game at their level.
So far, thanks to the President's leadership, along with the cooler heads in the military, we are playing our game...not theirs...and we are winning.
You should be thinking, not reacting. That is why he is the President and you are just..., well, just an oldvike.
What a stupid, unfounded in any facts, ignorant of the past 3 months of world events, statement to make ...
President Bush has shown to the world leadership qualities that are sorely lacking in the so called "leaders" of France, Germany, Russia, etc.
Unlike those mentioned who are afraid to stand up and oppose evil, whether it be for fear of political or economic risks, our President has stood head and shoulders above them in leading this just war.
I, too, pray that not one more US or coalition soldier is caught, killed or tortured because of our desire to protect Iraqi civilians. But I don't believe President Bush's concern for innocent Iraqi's is because he is worried about his image in the world.
The treatment of our captured troops by the Iraqi's as opposed to our treatment of POW's and our concern for the safety of Iraqi civilians as opposed to Iraq's lack of concern for them demonstrates the difference between our Western culture and their Islamic one.
God bless our troops, from the Commander In Chief to every Private and foot soldier.
Best regards,
