Default Iraq morass swallows more soldiers

As a peace offering to our American allies, it's not just the US that's getting themselves bogged down in Iraq. Here's the Brits!

Default Not Necessary

No offering is necessary..A good beach recon would have
nice in both cases.
One would think after vietnam countries would find
a different way to work thru this kind of fighting..

Default Excellent!

That site has some very funny stuff but also some disturbing things you might wish you hadn't seen, so navigate it with caution.

bogged down????? are you watching CNN or the BBC again????
toney
as someone with 2 tours there i can say that we are winning more and more every day. if you beleave everything you read then i have a bridge to sell you. if the fighting is so heavy why are are deaths realativly so light about 1600 combat deaths so far (3+ yrs of fighting)?

while manning a checkpoint a CNN crew told me that if it bleads it leads, and the world didnt care about the good things we do there.

most of iraq is now under iraqi control with about 6 fully armed iraqi divisions operating. right now there are more iraqi soldiers in iraq then coalition.

also verry few of the people that are shooting at us are from iraq.
just my point of view

Sorry, Dave, I led with my chin on that one. THIS POST IS MEANT TO BE FUNNY! Please watch the video in the link.
No slur intended upon any American, British or Australian service personnel currently or previously in Iraq. This was meant to be a pun on some of the so-called expert media commentary regarding government strategies in the Iraqi conflict.
