I agree but we should remember we are dealing with a cunning enemy. General Swarztkauf recalls that in 91 during the surrender meeting with Iraqi generals they requested the overfly of their helicopters to pick up some of their soldiers and take them back to Baghdad. They really duped the General(which he admitted) because they used those helicopters to kill the rebelling Sheite Muslims in southern Iraqi cities. We should be careful in holding off the complete destruction of the Saddam loyals. They are deceptive and we should not be naive just to gain support around the world. This could backfire on us and we could lose lives. We should just do it - destroy the enemy. This politically correct gesture worries me because these people are cunningly evil.
