Hi LindyBill; Re: "I don't want to get into a statistical discussion of BDA with you Carl."

Just explain the motivations for how it came to be that the public belief about the Gulf war was "one bomb - one kill", but the actual fact differed. Somebody lied and somebody had a reason. Who was it that lied and what was their motivation?

Re: "We took the Taliban with 200 men on the ground and the best bombing job ever done."

You're conveniently ignoring the grunts who actually took the ground (and took plenty of casualties doing it), the "Northern Alliance".
