"We Owned Saddam Here"

U.S. coalition forces continued to face greater opposition than had been expected as the war moved into its second week. A Washington Post article Thursday cited U.S. military officers as saying that despite the swift advance of the forces over the last week, the war is likely to stretch out for months and require far more troops and combat power than is currently on hand in the region.

I never understood why so many people thought it 'd be over in a few weeks!

For christ sake its only just been going on for over 1 week!

Personally I wouldn't expect it to be over in less than 3 mths ,maybe as much as 6mths

The only thing I dislike about this war is the fact that it is about 11 years behind schedule. That, and I have to agree that the American media has, in general, behaved like the bunch of nearly worthless fools they are.

Trust me parts of the UK media hasn't been much better!

,implying it'll be over in a few weeks & then slagging off people left ,right & center when its obvious that it won't!

A question to the anti-war group ,what would you have done about Saddam?

Not everyone had hindsight. Some of us warned against this, but were shouted down with "yeah, they are gonna drop their guns and run HAHAH" Want to see how many of those threads there were? How about those crowds throwing flowers at us? Nope.

I do not understand the had hindsite statement.
i think that you did not understand my post at all. Is it the most important thing to you to say "see I was right" when there is no proof is there to prove your point.
There were some that said it would be over in a few days. But these were the ignorant few teenagers or those with a mind of a child making these statements, you should be mature enough to realise this. My whole point was in my post that mistakes are made in times like this not only in judgement but in actions as well. It was also made to say that no matter what side you are on it is the best thing to support our goverment and what it stands for. The old saying divide and conquor is true and if it is your intent to divide you are asking to be conqured.
I also must say that I am a war vet and was against this war but the time has come to support our goverment and our troops and I will do this every way that I am able.

Bleep
