#2 The US military has perfected the art of setting up "safe zones" for the boyz, which causes them to concentrate. Their strength lies in their diffusion among the civilian population, and by collecting together, it is ten times easier to rout them.

#3 Anonymoose, good point. I think the military is a lot smarter than the press that is reporting about them. The press has'nt figured it out.
The one thing is, that if we go much further west, Syria will have a major problem. They ought to rethink thier strategy.

#5 Uh, plainslow, isn't that half the point? Though I'm liking what I see, I dunno about Grins' assertation; any indications that Zarqawi was even in the area?

#7 Edward. Yes. Did'nt make my point very well. I meant Syria needs to change thier tactics.
