I don't know that I agree that policemen are out, especially when they are a key part of the anti-insurgency effort. I certainly don't think we'd cut them out of our planning. Anyway, it was more an observation than anything else, as I'm not even opposed to propoganda really. But it isn't very constructive for accurate analysis of whats going on, which is of course the reason military history students like me avoid using such phrases when we can.
