No choice but to clamp down very, very hard on this particular city. The alternative is not acceptable; and would be even uglier in the long run.

Exactly what I told my husband after hearing this on the radio this morning.

Don't stand for this kind of foolishness.

So they want us gone, well too bad. We liberated the country, and if they could have done it by themselves, then they should have. But since they couldn't, we aren't leaving till a new government is firmly in place.

and some believed the Americans' goggles or binoculars can "see" through curtains or clothing.

How do you deal with people that are not of this century? Or last century, either.

Wasn't the first attack and it won't be the last.

They fired too late, the grenade tossers got too close. Open up next time 30 feet farther away and use a chain gun next time. "Protestors" do not carry grenades, targets do.
