Have to agree. It is a dangerous decision for our military, but I'll bet the south 40 that at the first big enemy assault the marines will be cut loose --- and no one can say GW didn't display patience and diplomacy before they are given the go ahead.
I agree. I think it's a good call given the present circumstances.
We got time. We got this fanatic and his supporters surrounded. They know their situation is hopeless. So does everyone else.
This show of restraint on our part only shows we are not the power-drunk occupiers the enemy would like to portray us as.
I believe this is a wise move on Bush's part. Keep praying for him and our guys in Iraq.
