i bet 3-4 weeks total.
a shift will begin in earnest when humanitarian aid will finally be dispensed to the families of soldiers still fighting.
the humanitarian effort will have as much motivating force as "bunker buster" bombs.
the change will be subtle, but it will increase geometrically as ordinary iraqis see and hear the real story of how coalition forces are treating the people who do not fight.
this morning i saw images of US soldiers handing little kids candy and bottled water---pretty effective PR to the world, and to the parents of these kids.
