Jackass.

How do we know the policeman’s name is really Mohammed?

Actually, we know it isn’t — because Ardolino, unlike the AP, has the integrity to tell us so.

Jackass.

They need to throw al-Sadr out of the gov't (and to the hangman) and waste his and others' militas until they get the point. War is a messy business that just gets messier and longer the harder you try to make it neat and clean. Better to keep it short by making it nasty as HELL and the enemy begs for peace! TCO

But that the occupation and "nation building" and definition of victory as stable, free Iraq is much worse. At this point, a time-table withdrawal makes the most sense. We still have lots of power and can influence things, but we need to get over the view that we can control everything, that we can make people live our dream. If they want to, great.
