bush is just doing more of the very effective psyops like we had during the successful invasion.
loud music blaring taunts at the enemy's manhood caused them to attack in the open and we slaughtered them.
daring them to attack our soldiers in Iraq
1. picks the place of the battle where we are best.
2. pulls focus off of easier targets (like US or world-wide)
this is a war.
its clear the dems quoted don't think it is a war and if they were in charge we would lose because of that.

Add that the troops in occupation of Bagdhad are not as soft a target as embassy staffs and garrison troops in Europe. If you are sleeping on a cot in a bare room, and running three patrols a day, it is easier to remember to guard your back and trust no one.
