Just pack up and leave. That will always be an option, the Iraqi will factor that in. <BR/><BR/>Since the "ruling" Iraqi will be Shia of one sort or another, they will recall '91. Everyone in the Region remembers how fast the Shah was abandoned. <BR/><BR/>If Mr Bush reenforces with a surge of the troops and steps up the Operation Tempo, while at the same time committing to a build up in the Embed Program, he covers most of the bases.<BR/><BR/>That gives the 4 to 6 month window of opportunity a good run. Hammer the Six Tribes with the majority Sunni supporting the push, tribal politics overcoming religious bonds.<BR/><BR/>Does the exodus continue, that is the most telling indicator of social stability. 5% of the Iraqi population has left for greener pastures.<BR/>14% of Mexico's workforce has as well. Exodus, a leading indicator of Societal Dysfunction.desert rathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02369546288659566961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-1166036107457391962006-12-13T13:55:00.000-05:002006-12-13T13:55:00.000-05:00Is CENTCOM out?<A HREF="http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=MzcxNmI3NmQ4ZDk0MzRkZDVlOGE4NTE4Mjc3Y2NmM2Q=" REL="nofollow">Is CENTCOM out?</A>buddy larsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17760847873026506988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-1166035771703417222006-12-13T13:49:00.000-05:002006-12-13T13:49:00.000-05:00Wonder if Hugo has nailed Publius--i can't get a c...Wonder if Hugo has nailed Publius--i can't get a connection--something about the server down.buddy larsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17760847873026506988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-1166035614802848742006-12-13T13:46:00.000-05:002006-12-13T13:46:00.000-05:007 or 8 yrs, not 8 or 9, sorry7 or 8 yrs, not 8 or 9, sorrybuddy larsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17760847873026506988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-1166035508607756742006-12-13T13:45:00.000-05:002006-12-13T13:45:00.000-05:00allen is right insofar as there was 8 or 9 years b...allen is right insofar as there was 8 or 9 years between Tet and the embassy roof chopper scene.
