Hi Nadine Carroll; Re: "In Carl's World, "mopping-up operations" take 3 days, no more no less."

Re: "Anything that isn't finished by three whole months, that's obviously a quagmire."

There are people on this thread that don't recognize Vietnam as a quagmire even though it went on for 20 years, LOL.

Re: "If you can even call operations in Iraq today "war"."

Uh, the general in command of US forces calls it "guerilla war". The widows and orphans probably think it's "war".
