They will bomb it to fuck and back first, missiles, heavy artillery,
tanks, helicopters. An Iraqi bodycount will be very hard in the same
way that a World War I bodycount was hard ... there aren't enough bits
left over after an intensive "softening up" operation.

You don't think they want to risk the Marines getting their arses kicked
*again* do you? Have some "rag-tag bunch of rag-heads" beating the best
of the US armed forces (again)? So soon after Emperor ShitForBrains has
claimed his purple cloak?

This time it's got to be a real "victory", no more resistance rising
from the rubble, no more retreating from superior forces. This is to
be the lesson - 'pour encourager les autres' (if only the glorious
leader had the brains to understand that).

This time it is Lidice.
