#1 My guess is that as we speak, Iraqi forces under American management are planning a cleansing of their own. Tune in next week for more of As The Tater Turns.

#2 “And no one can stop the death squads, least of all the police.”

Wouldn’t it be more accurate to say…Up to this point no one has been able to stop the death squads? Seems to me there are a number of ways to reduce if not eliminate the majority of the death squads. Some ways are more diplomatic in nature and other ways are much more harsh.

#6 Nothing a few well-placed sniper teams couldn't cure. Black clad hard boyz cruising at a walking pace down city streets stand out pretty well. An RPG or some nicely orchestrated fire would torque their turbans to spec. Might even begin to win the hearts and minds of Sunni locals.

#7 It's time to send a dozen or so US Apache pilots to Israel for advanced helizapper training, then turn them loose against Tater's tots. I'm sure zapping a dozen or so vehicles full of black-clad troops would put an end to the whole "adventure". Of course, the real solution is to get rid of Tater AND his "tots". We need to have the Iraqis crush him decisively, but that may be beyond current expectations. Regardless of how it happens, Tater and his "militia" have got to go.
