Another half hearted attempt at liberating what, an army base? Now stupid does attacking a fortified position manned with heavy weapons represent? Yes, Boss! That's why it's called a surprise or 'Gorilla style' attack! Remember, hit and run guys, with the heavy empathsis upon run. Its back to the Bill Ayers, Ho Chi Men re-education camp with the lot of you. What a bunch of ignorant fools.
