Yup, I'm still with Kill the bad guys- Kill all of them.
We'll sort 'em later. It's not a bad game plan! It's all about how we get-r-done.

Among the administration "voices" on the issue there is wide dissent over what to do. Some say we have Al Queda/Taliban on the run, they number only about a 100 or so. No permanent base camps, always on the move. A very optomisitic outlook in my opinion. Others are firmly in the doom and gloom camp. We might be over run and devastated if we don't take immediate action, NOW! Taliban influence is gaining ground with support from the locals, a view that concerns me and I'm afraid might be accurate.

But Taliban support is not wide spread, not yet, there are pockets here and there, stronger in certain areas. Those areas should be our focus, work to gain back what we have lost in respect to the people's of those areas. And we HAVE lost respect with the locals in too many areas.

No doubt the truth lays somewhere in between...
