INEVITABLE ATROCITIES

Second, a forlorn hope remains among the terrorists that, if only they can kill enough Americans and do so as graphically as possible, Washington will lose heart and abandon the struggle.

A hope continually fanned by the seditious American Media Sinister* - al-Katie Quric, CNN-BS, See-BS "News" and Petey Jennings.

*Sinister is Latin for "Left" - me & John Kerry knew it, and now you do too. ;-)

Ralph Peters sounds like his heart is in the right place, but I think he's delusional.

The U.S. military lost a ton of credibility when it disciplined Lt. Col. Allen West for his "unconventional" methods of extracting information from Iraqi prisoners. Ironically, his objective was to obtain information about planned ambushes just like the one we saw in Fallujah the other day.

I said at the time that if I were under his command when he was stripped of his duties, I would have abandoned my unit and walked to Paris from Iraq before I ever put on a military uniform again.

if the word tribal council does not indicate what century the people of Iraq are living in then the way they kill innocent people, when in government or in a rage should be enouhg. what they understand and why hussein was in power so long was force. it would be nice to shake hands and put up road blocks, but a level city and no home will put people to doing the basis of life instead of killing.
