I am waiting with baited breath for Hollywood to wake up and make a movie about our heroes and this just war.
But wait, that will never happen, because they hate GW Bush too much.
The next "terrorist" movie will surely have white men as the villians again, just like "The Sum of All Fears."
Pathetic.

Pretty impressive. He has probably single handedly done more to boost the morale of the Iraqis than anything possibly could.

When did this battle happen? Why did we not read anything about it or hear about it on our 24/7 news channels? Oh...it was probably during the Michael Jackson trial and we couldn't miss a minute of that fiasco, could we? What a tremendous story of a hero!

A great marine amongst other great marines.
It is the small Iraqi special forces units which are needed. Hundreds of such as described here with a strong esprit de corp and who are willing to slug it out toe to toe with an implacable enemy, and defeat them.
IMHO, massive armies, no, small hunter killer groups who strike fear in the opposition's heart and break their will is the answer..
