Your tagline(Why is the War on Terror being managed by the DEFENSE Department?) gave me an idea: fight the war with the free-market. Take one billion dollars, split it into 1,000 chunks (thats 1 Mill$ each) and give it, along with lazer spotters to 'reliable' ground recruits who could 'point out' the location of insurgents as they happily plot attacks over a glass of goat wine.

A few pinpoint sorties by F-16 and F-18's, and the insurgents might think twice about any 'gatherings'. By making instant millionares out of a thousand 'spotters', you could put a big dent in the resistance. Now, mulitply that by the amount currently being spent......this 'war' is done in a month.

I'd bet you wouldn't have to pay them any more than they're already earning. Just let them do what they were trained to do.

And get the FUBAR politicians out of the way.

The MSM refers to this as an "unpopular war."

What the hell is a popular war
