here are seven different levels you have to think through before you can fire your weapon - and that's under battlefield conditions.

"Our military can't fire their weapons on the enemy. We virtually can only return fire when we see someone shooting at us, and that may be too late. That's not how you fight a war." .

"Change of strategy? People have to realize that the Iraqis, on any side after thousands of years of violence, only respect the guy with the biggest gun," Danny was saying.

"Wouldn't it be nice if we really went into Sadr City and cleaned it out. Then those guys in there would be saying to themselves, 'These guys mean business.'

"Trouble is a lot of our guys can't really give it everything they got even though they want to because they're worried about ending up in Leavenworth.

"You have to let the military do their job."

Are you listening, President Bush?
