Do I get that right? You no longer back your beloved "Rummy"?? Well, I was never in favour of him, he isn´t capable of talking diplo-speak, but most FReepers admire him. *confused*

Quite the opposite: I am saying that Rumsfeld will not go until Bush goes, and Bush ain't going anywhere until 2008.

All I'm saying is I would like to see a change in tactics, but then again, I'm not there on the ground and so far the powers that be have done a pretty amazing job.

But maybe that's because I expected around 1500 KIA in the invasion alone. Why are there so many people (left and right) who think this has to be a garden party or its a failure? I saw the video of our Marines being welcomed with applause by the Shiites in Bagdhad; that doesn't mean there is not a significant part of the population that wants us dead. And my guess is that when a new government is established, there will still be some fighting and/or terrorism going on, as there is in almost every country from Casablanca to Jakarta.
