The fucking media pisses me off. They were just displaying on the screen the "Siege of Baghdad". We are not laying siege to Baghdad. We had three options available to us.
#1. Lay siege. To lay siege is to surround the city and let it wither or the vine. This was always an unacceptable choice for multiple reasons.
#2. To flatten the city with airpower and this too is an unacceptable choice for multiple reasons.
#3. Take the city and this is what we are currently in the process of doing.
We have yet to encounter a major battle and I am beginning to believe that we will take military control of the country without encountering a major battle.
I stated long before this war began that the Iraq military was ill led, ill trained, ill armed and that it would basically be a cake walk for our forces and up to this point in time this is proving to be the case.
