Hammer Time
It appears as if Iraqi Prime Minister Allawi has given the go ahead for the marines and Iraqi forces to go in and beat the bejesus out of the bad guys holed up in Fallujah.
Frankly, I don't blame Allawi for waiting for the elections here to go off. After listening to all that "wrong war, wrong time, wrong place" guff coming out of the Kerry camp all fall, I'd have made damn sure that he wasn't going to be calling the shots before I commited myself to something like this as well.
On the other hand, with Dubya firmly returned with a healthy chunk of "political capital" in his back pocket, I'm willing to bet the bad guys are sweating pretty hefty-sized bullets right about now. Buh-bye, boys.......
UPDATE: Our pal Rae posts a letter from a Marine that should remove any remaining doubts about whether the bad guys should be scared or not.
Oh. My. Goodness. Major snaps, and yips for The Llama Butchers! I woke-up this monring to a major instalanche (is that correct, as I have never experienced one...) And for the perfect reason, too!
Thank you time and again for linking Dave's letter. The truth will set you free, but it will first piss off all your enemies ;)
:D :D :D :D
