SpeedRacer 1 #5 April 21, 2005 I guess its preferable to them blowing up unarmed civilians. I don't know how long it will last before they go back to the soft targets. Either way, ....That Zarqawi.....what an asshole. Speed Racer -------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebecca 0 #6 April 21, 2005 Ugh. Stupid media. Why don't they post stories saying, "Iraqi insurgents have been wildly successful with their change in tactics, decimating an entire marine base. If they go after other large groups of organized American regulars, they will surely prevail!" Then post the real story when the dust clears. you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lurch 0 #7 April 22, 2005 Zarq should just start having his guys jump headfirst into a large backyard chipper/shredder. It'd be as effective a way to fight a war and it'd save us a buttload of bullets and band-aids. I give em major props for dedication but man what a stupid way to fight... Gee, theres a whole LOT of Americans all together, the deadliest guys America could assemble and send in numbers, equipped with every state of the art toy of darkness they can afford. Think we can take em by frontal assault with a couple suicide troops and some AKs? Hell yeah!

"Some U.S. commanders privately hoped that this day would come when the poorly trained terrorists would go head-to-head with American regulars. If terrorists come out in the open in large numbers, it makes it easier to find them and kill them." Reads just like the Strategy Page , and as far as I'm concerned, they can't die fast enough. mh ."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."

With 1566 US soldiers dead so far, I think they're being a little more effective than that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With 1566 US soldiers dead so far, I think they're being a little more effective than that. Not when you consider how many of them have to die in order for them to kill that many of our troops. That ratio pretty damn high in our favor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lurch 0 #12 April 22, 2005 I won't argue their overall success rate is slightly higher. They have us on sheer numbers and they don't mind freely spending their own lives and the lives of their fellow muslims by bombing their own cities to bag a couple Americans a pop. But 99.whatever percent of those 1566 weren't bagged by the full frontal approach, anyway. Its been all attrition, and at a horrible exchange rate. Live and learn... or die, and teach by example.

billvon 3,131 #13 April 22, 2005 >That ratio pretty damn high in our favor. That's great if we have about the same number of troops as insurgents. But if there are 500,000 of them, even a 10:1 ratio is going to be pretty hard on us. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
