Please please please...

Excellent. Lets get into the dictionary, because this word is bound to start coming up more often. atÃÂ÷trit (ə-trĭt') pronunciation also atÃÂ÷trite (ə-trīt') tr.v., -tritÃÂ÷ted also -tritÃÂ÷ed, -tritÃÂ÷ting -tritÃÂ÷ing, -trits -trites. 1. To lose (personnel, for example) by attrition. 2. To destroy or kill (troops, for example) by use of firepower: ÃÂÃÂPro-active counterattacks are a useful way to attrit the enemyÃÂà(John H. Cushman, Jr.). The Taliban/Pak may breed like rabbits, but there is a finite limit. The more and the faster they lose, the more inept their actions become, the younger/more inexperienced their front end. Makes the job less risky for the good guys. Keep up the good work, lads.

"I wonder if theyre getting close to OBL." They are dead. I think that is as close as you can get these days.

Now if only their leaders were Democrats, this part of the war would be over.
