Fallujah has been the center of resistance for a long time, it is the major city of Sunni tribe which placed Sadam in power. It is the city that "defeated" the USMC, or so it thinks, until Fallujah falls and falls hard Iraq will remain a terrorist state. Every PC effort has been made trying to deal with Fallujah, all have failed. Fallujah should be considered an enemy city in enemy hands and deal with accordingly.

"Did you see the news on FOX that NELSON, BC, Canada plans to HONOR our draft dodgers from Vietnam???"

Yes - unbelievable. However the time frame is appropriate, as Kerry is running for President.

>>I wonder how much of this is a result of Kerry's giving aid to the enemy with all his criticism of our war efforts.

Without a doubt, KERRY is ENCOURAGING this activity, and just like Vietnam, he is ENABLING our enemies!

Kerry is betting ALL HIS MARBLES that Iraq can turn into a Vietnam (in the media) in the next SIX WEEKS

There is a place for rage--the enemy. We should cut as wide a swath as necessary to kill our enemy and the regimes that support him. Killing beyond that erodes our character.



So that means Nagasaki and Hiroshimi were wrong?

I tell you we need to wage this war like WW2 not like NAM.
If we fight it like WW2 -our enemy will surrender.
If we fight it like NAM -our enemy won't.

Can't use nukes, but a battery or two of 8 inch guns will do the job nicely, might take 2 or 3 weeks, but that's OK too.

"We Americans must never sit and watch. What is wrong with you!

Get up and out in the street. Grab your Flag and run with it high. Stand in front of a Mosque with it and behead a dummy with a towel on its head and a sign of "terrorist" around its neck!"

Well ok, sounds like a plan.
But of course would need to 1st get a permit, then even after doing that and getting the local news TV team to be on site, here we all go off to jail 'cause we were doing some sort of dam hate crime.

Now, if there were thousands of us Americans standing there outside that place of devil worship, then, maybe.....

But then again, could just do what Hitler did (sorry 'bout the comparison) but give the whole dam city, block by block 5 minutes to get the belongings, carry only 1 bag, then on to the buss ya go, off to a controlled site miles away.
Then within 24hrs, any and all who have not left, too late, as the whole dam city will be dis-asemalated (sp).

Rant-Rave-got to do more than this.

I thought today as I was listening to Rush play parts of Kerry speaking, this guy is enjoying and feeding off of the increase in attacks for political gain. It is like the terrorists are providing him with the material he needs to harp on about Iraq. They are actually working hand-in-hand.

He is undermining the President, the leaders and the brave men and women fighting for freedom. They have enough to concern themselves with and this man is using these atrocities for his own gain.

Just like he did after Viet Nam. What a despicable creature. He is a traitor. Anybody who loved America could never do such a detestable thing.

exactly. Please reprint 10 times.

We need to Nuke a Muslim capital everytime there is a beheading. THIS will win the war since they won't want to play by them rules, and if they do, we still win.

Because once the Muslim terrorist get the nukes, we will be nuked.

KILL THEM BEFORE THEY KILL YOU. 1.2 BILLION MUSLIM "SCUMBAGS" CAN'T BE WRONG.

You are correct in your analysis and solution.

I've read many of your posts. You seem to know a lot about Fallujah. When was the last time you were there? What did your last polling data say about their attitudes. You have said that there are relatively few there who are of the lunatic Islamist fringe .... on what do you base this? I think you are looking at this whole thing in an almost liberalesque idealist mindset. I suspect that the numbers in Fallujah who are either in league with the terrorists or tacitly support them are far higher than you are willing to believe. There are, apparently, those who not so long ago donned head wraps and threatened Zarqawi. I would love to see them act, but it is these people, I fear, who are in the extreme minority.

Well, your heart's desire of mushroom clouds is gonna go unrequited.

Army COS General Peter Schoomaker, perhaps the only tougher guy on this planet than you jpsb, said "We're not going to win it militarily. We are going to win it when Iraqis take ownership."

And, the "Nuke Islam" and "Level Fallujah" idjits can't take solace in the fact that the USMC architects of the Fallujah strategy ... Lt. General James Conway and Maj. General Mattis we're given HUGE promotions recently. Conway became operational commander of J-3 (reports only to Joint Chiefs Myers) and Mattis is going to be frocked to 3 stars and given the top post at the Marine Corps Combat Development Command. Nice gigs.

Sorry. Fallujah is a success. Smart adults are in charge. FR blowhards blow hard. Bush wins in November.

We're on the right track. Your thinking and approach is worse than your writing. All is good.

You apparently see things as they really are and I agree.

Stopped reading right there since I have on at least two occasion in this very thread stated NO NUKES. You either don't read or don't think, both mean you are not worry of a dialog with me. Bye.

This on a thread discussing the merciless beheading of a fellow American citizen.

If Fallujah is a success, why is it regarded as a city that the Iraqi government does not have control of? You seem to have a strange notion of success.
