Fallujah was known as a problem nearly a year ago. Nothing was done. Not agreeing with your premise or anything, but what, exactly should have been done that wasn't, General Tejek? Now what do you think? It doesn't take a general nor a genius to figure this one out so even you have a chance. There has been an armed militia in Fallujah for the past year. There was a conscious decision NOT to disarm them. Now, o wise one, what would you have done? Generals up the wazoo have been calling for more troops since before the war started. Only now are they upping the numbers. The generals who are running the show haven't made the call for more troops until recently. While I don't doubt more troops would have helped, we have a limited number available since the previous administration gutted our military. We have to make do. There were more troops available but Rumsfeld did not think they were needed. NOW those extra troops are being called up. Frankly, I am beginning to think you're as stupid as your president!
