Do you have a great need for not understand anything of anything, these days?? (hint: the illegal war is almost over.....the illegal coalition has almost "won")

i am amused at your persistance at flailing at who best interprets the coalition's "proper" way of fighting It is you who took to quoting Sun Tzu and his teachings of the "Art of War". According to the passage you quoted, for US/UK forces whose military might more than 10 times surpasses that of Iraq's, the better way to win would have been to "surround" Iraq, rather than to "attack" it. sun tzu should take a lesson from bush? Pray tell why you keep quoting him on the "Art of War", if you have such a opinion on his teachings? res ipsa loquitur Not sure what you mean to say by that re US/UK military victory in Iraq, since nobody argued that Iraq would win. One question: When Sun Tzu says: "The art of using troops is this: ......When ten to the enemy's one, surround him; ......When five times his strength, attack him; Message 18830207 ...do you think he says "attack" when you are five times as strong as the enemy and "surround" when you are ten times as strong, because, uh, your victory is less sure? So, how does the US/UK military victory in Iraq disprove Sun Tzu? Did you even read Art of War?
