One CIA operative or Delta Force soldier with a laser can do more efficient damage painting B-2, F-117 or Tomahawk targets than 10 Abrams tanks on the streets of Damascus

I agreed with your synopsis to this point.

B2 bombs and cruise missiles have little effect against hit and run guerrillas.

That's why we will probbaly take Baghdad fairly soon only to be plagued by months of cleanup, nightly civilian body bags on ABC/CNN, and a looming PR battle for W.


BUMP

The guys who are in the neighborhood to paint the target with a laser are also positioned to paint the Baathist goons with a pallette of hot lead!

Seriously, if we had agents deep enough in Saddam's shadowy world to pinpoint where he and his boys were going to go beddy bye that first night, we've got the intel and people there to find and kill any lurking thugs.
