Yeah, I agree.  We're basically in the middle of a combination civil
war/regional war/kill-US war.  Right now what's keeping us from making
any progress is Don Rumsfeld and his decision to use too few troops.

Consequently, the marines go clear an area out, but then have to leave
and it fills right back up again.  One of those areas is called the
Iraqi border!

Before anyone says, "the generals aren't asking for more troops blah
blah blah" remember: that's a cover for Mr. Rumsfeld who sets the
goals.  If you don't set a goal of securing the airport road then no
troops are plenty of troops to do it.

In Mr. Rumsfeld's defense he may be ordered by the President to do his
best without increasing military levels, etc.
