You cynicism is completely unwarranted, and shows little faith in your future... of course, Iraq isn't a cakewalk... and comparing Iraq with Vietnam is a big mistake... it should more accurately be compared with Guadalcanal... we are going to take losses in the beginning, but Iraq is where we'll establish our beach head, this is the beginning a of a major world war against terrorism, this is not an isolated conflict in one small corner of the world... lift up your eyes and have more faith in the future...

"My most immediate prediction is that after the Marines storm around Falluja like Vogon guards they will find that the fight had moved elsewhere."

Oh... I'm sure that most of the insurgent combatants moved out of Falluja before our latest assault... and they will filter back in again afterwards.

As long as the Sunni population favors them, and opposes the appointed government.
