We all have seen those comments before, but frankly I dont believe them. Think about it. NYC a reasonably lawabiding place has something like 50,000 police. Baghdad has 40,000 USA soldiers and 12,000 Iraqi police but it is NOT so law abiding. Then there is the Sunni triangle or whatever they call it, and finally there is the FLUID BORDER where NO ONE IS GUARDING ANYTHING. I said long ago we need enough forces there (whether they be American, Coalition or Iraqi to SATURATE the country to force out the terrorists sneaking in and arrest the thugs who are there. The problem is WE DONT HAVE anymore troops to send and still maintain a rotation. jdn
