#1 I'd think if they had really regrouped they'd be showing it through action rather announcements. They can run but they can't hide. :)

#3 You'd think these morons would hire Baghdad Bob to do their Press releases. HIS at least had humor value.

#4 "We are the invincible Lions of the Desert - Warriors of the Two Rivers and Three Dollars! When I mobilize the other 5 mujahideen, the Marines will quake with fear! We will be there as soon as we receive medical attention and more Holy Ammo!"

#5 Actually, technically, regrouping is a sign of military defeat and a sign the enemy is going over to the defense. Works for the jarheads I would guess. All they need now are coordinates for the gun bunnies.

#6 "The Mujahedeen will teach a memorable lesson to the collaborators who sold Iraq and prove to Arab regimes that only the language of guns and martyrs makes a difference,"

They are only happy irritating everybody and everything , I think some corners which were with them are turning round to our side now . Sounds like they are planning more kidnappings , hostage taking and executing local and national government figures , as this is their best form of attack to destabilize Iraq . Basically , after Fallujah , thats all they are capable of , 4 man hit teams .

#7 ooh and my assumption of 4 man hit teams is , its hard work getting more than 5 into a toyota corolla :)

#9 The boomings, kidnappings, and beheadings were such a resounding success! Let's do some more and we'll really piss off everyone.

Now there is a winning strategy.

#10 The report is true, I saw a guy putting all the body parts in a big pile. As effective a fighting force as they ever had.

#12 It's time to reassess the use of napalm and flame-throwers. We need to teach these "holy warriors" just how mean, evil, wicked, bad, nasty, cruel and heartless US warriors can be, instead of playing PC games and abiding by a convention the islamonutcases sneer at. A few crispy kritters a day would make quite an impression on them. The world has forced us to wear boxing gloves in this war, because it fears us. It's time to take the gloves off and and prove that fear is justified.

#13 Frank G - Lol!

Here's the updated Sedan of Deathâ¢ - complete with an alternative escape capability.

BTW, I think that's my pony...

#14 OP - Amen. Getting tired, yet, lol? We've been talking about how this was what would work for, oh, about 18-24 months now... and finally the Sunni Triangle has had a teensy taste of what we could do - in one city - and the effect is significant. And it was done wearing those damned gloves, as you pointed out... It's a whole 'nuther thing if we get to take them off, and bounce the bouncing rubble of every "hotbed" of stupidity in Al Anbar.

To the Iraqi Shi'a: You're welcome. Enjoy the show?

#15 An extract of a play I am writing.

American: "You have regrouped? Nice. Could you regroup a bit tighter"
Jihadi: "Like that, filthy kaffir?"
American: "Yes, now all of you are in the balst radius of a single JDAM. I hate to waste tax payer's money".

#16 Echoing .com....Fallujah got a righteous pounding, and the WP Arty rounds were just what the doctor ordered. All those melted bodies had the desired impact on the muj - they had no idea what hit them. They gotta be wondering what else we have in the ol' quiver.

#17 Talk is cheap. They should prove that they've regrouped and stage some more attacks. The big risk though, is that they'll lose more "co-workers".

#18 Yeah, yeah, and Saddam kicked our asses in '91.
