Kerry and Murtha both have solid plans. They know warfare better than anyone in the White House. They have lived it. Not a single rightwing leader has ever served in combat, and it shows by their terrible pisspoor planning. This stay the source BS is just stupid and terrible damaging to our military. Most of the generals wish Murtha were in charge.

U.S. to deploy Patriot missiles in Japan?
Japanese newspaper reports on military’s plan

msnbc.msn.com

TOKYO - The U.S. plans to deploy advanced Patriot interceptor missiles in Japan by the end of the year, a Japanese newspaper reported Monday, amid concerns that North Korea may be about to test-fire a long-range ballistic missile.

The U.S. government notified Tokyo earlier this month that it will deploy Patriot Advanced Capability-3 missiles — designed to intercept ballistic missiles, cruise missiles or aircraft — on its own bases in Japan for the first time, Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper reported.

The U.S. military would deploy three or four batteries of the surface-to-air missiles on the southern island of Okinawa, where it also plans to send an additional 500 to 600 troops, Yomiuri said, quoting an unidentified government officials.

re: Instead, they're being played by the terrorists as well, just like all of the journalists who keep showing American defeat after defeat but never the fact that 95% of all hostile encounters goes badly for the terrorists.

Link?

The fact that the hostile encounters aren't stopping or even slowing down is a victory for the insurgency and bad for us.

What good ideas does the right have on Iraq? More of the same is all I'm seeing.

Rarely is a war against an insurgency won. Look no further than the Brits vs the N. Irish; Israelis vs Hamas; Sri Lanki vs the Tamil Tigers; Russia vs Chechnya; the US vs the Vietcong.

I promise you......we will pull out of Iraq with the insurgency still virile.....either on Bush's nickel or someone else's. The longer the right resists the inevitable the more Americans who will die.
