I am not Searle but i do see the costs of war and there is more sadness than pride to me in those costs. The LA riots were not fun!. Especially for people who worked their butts off to get a business going to find whoops its gone, Then we have the people who need the products the store supplied whoops the store is gone now where do we go and how much more will it costs us in gas to get there?. Diplomacy is less destructive for everyone. . news.bbc.co.uk Instability plagues Baghdad Gangs of armed looters make off with whatever they can carry Law and order has broken down in Baghdad one day after US troops rolled into the heart of the Iraqi capital and seized control. There have been serious incidents of looting across the city with two key Baghdad hospitals and many smaller ones being ransacked, International Red Cross officials said. Shortly after darkness fell at least four US marines were injured in an apparent suicide bomb attack on a military checkpoint in the area of Saddam City, a poor area in the north of Baghdad. Despite appearing to control large parts of the capital, US troops were engaged in fierce fighting throughout the day, with one US soldier being killed, as they battled pockets of resistance from die-hard supporters of President Saddam Hussein. United Nations and international aid officials have criticised US and British troops for failing to curb the looting in Baghdad and in southern Iraq, saying it threatened to deepen the country's humanitarian crisis. But the Pentagon said US troops were dealing with pockets of resistance as a top priority, before turning their attention to restoring law and order.
