#1 So whats up with this? Sounds like al-Guardian hired a stringer from Jihad Unspun to me. Someone verify this is a realistic picture?

If it is true sounds like it's not worth saving. Let the Iraqi Army take Artillery practice on it.

#2 So the Crips and the Bloods run certain blocks in LA. The point is? If in a stable environment, in a prosperous economy, and with substantial police force and governmental structures in place, this can happen, WTF do they expect in small vill Iraq? Oh, its such a quagmire.

#4 Hate to say this...But it's true. I've got a son fighting in Anbar. His base is like Fort Apache. Everything outside is owned by the Boogeyman.

#5 Fort Apache is appropriate. It takes time to do this, but as the first Fort Apache showed, it can be done. With the crowd today however, I suspect the Dakotas, Montana, Wyoming, Arizona and New Mexico would still be Indian Territory.

#7 Send him our love, Marine Dad. And our thanks! They'll get it all straightened out there, I'm sure, now that they've started paying more attention to that part of the country.
