So is this 21,500 new troops actually about Iran and not Iraq? |
|
because it seems that it is Iraq that is the main topic on the table. I admit I didn't see Chimpy's speech.

1. If it is, then what is the pla? Sacrifice them in hopes of |
|
appeasing Iran somehow? Cuz I don't think we can do squat against them with even 10 times that number.

2. Bin Laden wanted US bases out of Arabia, so bush moved them to Iraq |
|
Eveidently it's the new staging ground for the mustering of forces to clear route for oil and gas pipelines.
Please consider my sig line for info about the probable means the junta will use to sell this new war.

3. 20,000 more cots, 5000 more tents? |
|
How many more vehicles? 60,000 more meals per day? Latrines? Ammo? Tires? Sand bags? Where do you put 20,000 more troops in a city?
