Good call, Chris. I think so also. Bush has weighed the options. He knows the Fallujah battle's won and the decision to win the peace with the populace on the cusp of a 30 June transfer of power is more important and lasting than the obvious outcome of going completely heavy handed on the town just to clean up what's left of a shattered group of foreign fighters and Saddam hangers on.
The Syrian/Iranian funded and equipped terrorists will do what they do on any account, so this is just one of a series of battles to deal with. It will be interesting to see the Bush strategy unfold after the election, especially with Syria and Iran.
More voices of reason on a thread desperately needing it. thanks
