And no wonder most average Iraqis don't believe a word of what we say either. The current insurgent estimate is anywhere from 30,000 to 200,000. With 50,000 to be a more realistic number, we need a 10:1 ratio, i.e. 500,000 soldiers to stabilize Iraq now. We have 150,000 now and in the last 2 years, nearly 1400 are dead and over 10,000 are out of action due to injuries. Welcome to guerrilla warfare. This is just the beginning. Don't say some of us didn't warn you before March 2003. We did, but you morons were so full of yourself that you didn't bother.
