| #2 It's kind of hard to win the hearts and minds of Iraqis when you are firing a quarter of a million bullets per day in their homeland, some of them winding up in random living rooms. And there is the author's entire point in a nutshell. Truth be told, this analysis has about exactly as much merit as Lancet's statistical analysis of Iraqi casualties - and about the same validity IMO. |

| #1 This is rather OT, but while we're on the topic of ammo needs, IIRC France does not produce its 5,56N ammo itself anymore, and buy them from... Israel! This needs confirmation (JFM), but if true, and I think it might be, please, let's hope nobody tells the Youutths! |
