Politically correct rules of engagement win no "hearts and minds" in Fallujah

Using the CSM...

...for source material,is about as useful and accurate as using the MSM for info but there's no doubt that we need to treat Fallujah -and more to the point,Mooky al Sadr and his brigades- more like Hiroshima 1945, than the tactics described here.It makes one sick to think that these animals have a voice in the new democracy when they should've already been slaughtered or captured as war criminals subject to the death penalty just like ol' Sadaam. But hey, treason is no longer even called by its name in THIS country let alone acted upon in a just way,so you can't expect us to tell them not to be "free" to destroy their own country.

As far as comparing Fallujah with Chicago and Detroit,with respect to daily arrests,that is not analogous.If it took 3,000 MORE U.S. casualties to secure peace in the whole of Iraq,but there WAS peace,you would not say,"Only a handful of peace officers die in a year to keep relative calm in an American town so therefor,something must be wrong".Comparisons like that are symtomatic of liberals and their institutions like the CSM.They seek to "bring it home" to the reader by encouraging outrage and or disapointment.A pro-American publication would include the fact that on the whole,the current American Fighting Man not only serves with greater honor and distinction than any fighting force in history(not that they would EVER mention that little fact),but they believe in their mission and could not be so valiant with the low moral of people fighting "a lost cause".I know the story doesn't say that, but like so much lib "journalism",the message of despair is clearly sent.
