[QUOTE="area43, post: 234257, member: 4862"] I agree, what Iraq needs most is a Gandhi. Martin Luther King or a George Washington. Someone that is a strong leader that can galvanize the population that is so divided. Let me go back to the Romans and the way they handle terrorism in their day. Or let me just put it another way. Lets say the Romans were us. Present day. History, to forget the past is to repeat it. Ok, the Romans when hit with terrorism and not knowing who did it would go after a segment of that civilian population where that person or persons might be hiding and wipe them out completely. Sounds harsh, yes. Thats war folks. War is to political now days. The Romans knew if they tried to find these guys by other means, lets say politcally correct means by todays standards they would have a long drawn out(years) struggle costing many men and resources in eractacating the problem. We do not have the political stomach no more for war. Perfect example dropping of 2 "A" bombs on Japanense civilian cities to end the war. If it were today I believe we would spend another 400,000 American soldiers lives in our attempt to win the war. Just think, what would Al Gore have to say, "What are you nuts!!!!!! Atomic Bomb, No Way, what about global warming". [/QUOTE]
