I'm telling you the only way to end this is for Bush to wake up to the fucking fact that they ended the hardcore pounding prematurely. All these fucking financiers paying for the bombings are centered up in Tikrit. The people all support Saddam in this area too.
Fuck them. Start pounding the whole region up there day and night with B-52's. That's the only way you send a message they'll understand.
It will be horrible, but war is always horrible.

Usually you make sense, but this is just an intensely stupid idea.
Bombing a country you are already occupying will convince the inhabitants of that country that you are against them. Right now there are still many Iraqi's who aren't against the US. Bombing would change that. It would unite most Iraqi's in a common goal: driving the American murderers out of their country by any means necessary.
If something like that was done it would also lead to international outrage, diminishing chances of troops from other countries ever coming over to help out. So, you'd have massive resistance, no help from other countries... in short, thousands upon thousands of dead American soldiers in the next few decades.
Ofcourse, there's also the moral dimension. Liberating Iraq only to slaughter it's inhabitants?! It would mean that a country which didn't pose any threat whatsoever would have been invaded for the sole reason of killing off the people who live there. Hell, even I would side with the terrorists then.
