The other side always wants to talk peace when they are losing. This is especially true of terrorist organizations throughout history.
But when they ask for a pause, that is exactly the time to strike them even harder.
Osama's kind will never give up. They may get old and gray but they are always recruiting younger members and leaders to take over. They have been indoctrinated in the parts of the Koran which tells them to fight on forever until the Islamic Sharia Law Caliphate is installed over as much of the world as possible.
It was going to take a decade or more to stop Islamic terrorism. It always takes a long time to stop a terrorist movement.
Now is the perfect time to move on Fallujah and on Osama's protection zone in Waziristan Pakistan (where the Pakistanians are still afraid to go and/or are not ready to take on the thousands of tribal fighters protecting Osama and resisting any authority other than the tribal chiefs.)
"Osama's kind will never give up"
Too true. History is replete with examples of Arab "warriors" begging for mercy and then sucker-punching their adversary when he sheaths his sword.
No mercy for these swine.
