When they are done splattering al-Sadr and his filthy crew all over the dirt roads, they can head for the Iranian border, where they can proceed to mop up any Iranian units the Air Force and Navy have left standing.
You're dreaming. 20,000 more troops aren't enough to make a significant difference; we need at least 100,000 more to pacify Iraq, win this thing quickly and then invade Iran. But here I go dreaming too; Bush will put another 200 American troops in the brig for 'war crimes' before he lifts his pc, assinine 'rules of engagement' and lets the dogs of war loose on the enemy. This whole 'surge in troop strength' thing is pure political grandstanding, nothing but a showcase that won't change a thing.
I think we should send Pelosi with her new "gavel" over to Iraq and maybe she can knock out the enemy so they won't be a burden to the U.S.
