Getting back on topic though, the major problem of the war on terror, like the war in Iraq, is that it has become entirely too political and it has severely hamstrung the military. I don't find myself offbase saying that it is almost a necessity to have lawyers embedded with the troops just to make sure we are operating according the anti-war, anti-America peoples wishes. In war you act swift and you act hard, that's why assholes like Al-Sadr, Zarqawi, towns like Fallujah, are really fucking up our shit, because people seem to have no concept of reality in that the bold stroke wins the battle. America loves it hegemony on the cheap, idealism and ambition without balls and grit!
