Hi Sig; Re: "A valid comparison, a war with 30 or 40 mm casuaties compared with one of 500."

It's quite a hoot that a supporter of the war would be rejecting a comparison with WW2. For years, all you guys could talk about was WW2. Saddam was the new Hitler. Iraq was like Germany. The WTC attack was Pearl Harbor. It went on and on.

But hey, if you can't understand the simple military facts of occupation then you're just going to have to learn the hard way. Watch the news.

Re: "Who needs pacifiers?, we just plan to plain disarm them."

Tell you what. I bet that 30 days will go by and not only will we have no pacification, but we will not have disarmed the residents of Fallujah. Care to take the bet on? I'm quite certain that there will be no door to door wholesale disarming of the population of Fallujah. I'm also quite certain that the residents of Fallujah will not give up their arms.

How about you?
