Okay...Lets call them "Patriots of the highest order"...Now what???
Yet another brilliant solution to a difficult problem...
Its a war. They still see it as a war, even though its a lost cause (therefore the "dead-enders" terminology fits pretty well)
Give it another 6 months or so, and there will be an Iraqi police force established that will handle these remnents of Sadam's regime.
IT just isn't going to happen overnight.
Nobody ever said it would.
War is hell.
