Why would adding more troopsw help us with 100 jerks in falluja? How is it a resource problem. This is a whole other issue. Stop letting the media play you. this will be over soon and quickly forgotten.

Stop letting the media play you. Sy Hersh couldn't play me if he had a cello and a map. He's the scum of the universe, a teacher-spoiled Best Boy who didn't have the guts to run for office and take responsibility himself. He's a Bob Macnamara wannabe.

Dittos on this. We had about 3,000 troops in Fallujah... okay that is 2% of our total forces... in this 'huge' battle, and 98% of our forces elsewhere.
And those forces could have liquidated the resistance in fallujah in a matter of 6 days or less.
The restraint is the ROE to avoid collateral damage and the political pressure not to hurt Iraqi feeeeeeeelings.
