Other than creating a fire hazard for their own citizens, what do they expect to accomplish by such tactics?

I suspect that all of the artillery and other explosions that we watched on the live cameras in Baghdad this evening, looking east or southeast, was the precursor to the Marines moving into Baghdad. It was devastating, lasting over an hour.

Yeah, he does. He's a bit long in the tooth to be humping the dunies with 21 year old warriors.

He should take a little R&R.
