Dan, thank you for posting that. While I was aware of the true nature of our common enemy, I needed a synopsis that could be stated simply and understanbly.

Tom, that's what I've been saying from the beginning.

While the Vidieo of M-1A1 Abrahms doing a fire on the run while Apache gunships swoop overhead makes for dramatic viewing, that sort of action will not win this one.

This time it's going to fought in alleys and isolated camps in remote areas.

The American public may not have the stomach for what must be done, and to be honest, shouldn't know the details until afterwards if ever.

Thsi time it's going to be a few men up, close and personal scattered all over the world. Short furious firefights, a kilo of C-4 slipped into a secret place. Knives and sniper fire.

And the worst part is we will never know the names of those who fall in this battle until long afterward, if ever.
