The only way big bang American firepower is going to stabilize Iraq is if we become more abhorrent than the terrorists

Even if that were to become our policy it sure isnt something we would want to become public. As you know, we had programs like that in Nam, but we sure didnt discuss them. Friend of mine was one of those "Ghosts" and even though we were very close he told me very little. jdn

How can that work, uw? Have our SF guys in country, and then need American firepower, and it is not available? Or the SF guys in country all by themselves? Or have the entire Army retrained as SF folks?

Please forgive the really dumb questions but I'm really trying to understand how a different way would work....

To accept my viewpoint, you must first come to this realization...No amount of American fire power is going to stabilize Iraq.>/i>
