"perhaps we should have used 2000 Special Ops troops" If we took that route, the global outcry would have been even louder than the misplaced, deceitful, distorted & unfounded allegations we have seen with this just war. And many of those expressing opposition would have had compelling arguments against such a surgical strike. Perhaps it would have worked, but I doubt it. We would have had to kill them all in a very tight time frame or word would have spread quickly. Our intelligence is not capable if identifying all leadership & their precise location at any given time, let alone for a lightning strike throughout Iraq. I don't know where you got your 80,000 Iraqi soldiers killed either. I'm sure it's much higher than the several thousand reported in the media, but right now 80,000 may be wrong by a magnitude of 2 or 3. In any event, the actual number would have been much lower if Saddam & his henchmen didn't force unwilling participants to fight under threats of death to them & their families.
