					<description>I have been blogging about this for nearly a year: the Iraqi Army will soon be the toughest, the best equipped, and the army the most well trained in the Middle East.  Iran is correct to be afraid.  Very afraid.  Which is why they have been sticking their noses in.</description>

					<description>You are right, Howard.  Once the Iraqi Army has established itself and proved to be the dominate force in the region (and a staunch U.S. ally), President Bush's true grand strategy will be realized.

And that will mark the beginning of the end for Iran's mullahs and their allies like the bitch Harry Reid, etc.</description>

					<description>The blame for the lack of British engagement cannot be placed on the shoulders of their troops. The blame for cowardice lies squarely on the shoulders of the current majority of Liberal/Marxist/Leninist/Socialist coalition that controls parliament over there.</description>

					<description>The hidden benefit of a "long war" is the development of a competent NCO corps &#38; reliable offers. That was the reason for disbandenment of the Daddam army. These guys are largest combat trained troops today.

Rearming with M16s is another sign of professionls. The Persians will lose in all forms of combat to these guys.

Sooo, hows the air force?...</description>

					<description>Hey Folks;
Today is April 19th, the anniversary date of when "The Shot Heard Around the World" was fired on the Lexington Green 233 years ago today.
God bless Captain Parker and his men who stood tall against the British Regulars and of course Paul Revere, Billy Dawes, Sam Adams, John Hancock and many more.
That shot is still echoing today and no doubt is in Iraq!
Hoorah! :beer:  :beer:  :beer:  :beer:  :beer:</description>

You are correct sir, to its credit the state of my birth is one of only a couple left that officially recognize &lt;b&gt;"Patriots Day"&lt;/b&gt; . Maine has lost so much that used to make me proud, I at least have to point this out.</description>

So very, very true. Keep saying it loudly. The Squadies deserve so much more support than they are getting from the MoD. It might be time for a revolution, maybe a certain Prince will lead a palace coup....</description>

					<description>:arrow: TB typical. Thanx for the support.
Just yesterday I was reading that even one-hundred-years ago, someone was lamenting the fact that we as a nation were not celebrating "Patriots Day" as we had in the past. And now, well, as you know, it is sadly mostly forgotton. People think it is a day that the Boston Marathon is suppose to be run and have no clue as to why there suppose to be a celebration. :beer:  :gun:</description>

You are right, Howard. Once the Iraqi Army has established itself and proved to be the dominate force in the region (and a staunch U.S. ally), President Bush’s true grand strategy will be realized.

------------------------------------------------------------

Although THAT fact is not only buried, but smothered in the MSM, you are 200% correct.

However ...

It'll ALL be shot to shit if Hussein, or even Hillary, takes over the desk in the Oval Office.

GOTTA get McCain in there ... HE, for all his domestic foibles, gets it big time in this ...</description>
