Iraq has no air force... , all they have is Gorilla's or what ever you call the hit and run tactic
If that's the case all the U.S. must do to solve the problem is cut off Iraq's banana supply.

Gorilla's don't really eat bananas ... that's the myth... Just hope there are no gorilla wanna be apes about... it could get nasty.. in the low lands of Iraq..

Ya this is pretty much what we do.
The US hardly does anything before first achieving air superority. Also avoiding concentrations of enemy troops and "hitting them where they aint" has been used extensivily since WW2.

Makes sense to me... if you're gonna go a waring it might as well be to win and sustain the fewest losses... It is also what keeps us from getting into it with major players.... besides who here would support sending our guys into the valley of death..
