Military Deaths 061106 LA Times)

This is the report that tears your heart from where it belongs, but what if we were to stop the fight? Do you feel that the deaths would end? would they stop fighting us? I don't think that they would!! I feel that they would fight us harder!! Because we would be preceaved as weak, so they would want to strike us while we are down!! They would want to not only strike us in our own country, but they would continue to strike us in areas that we still have bases. Other Countries that don't have much of a military, who count on us supporting them. but then we would be fighting in their country a war that was started by someone that would rather not say who that thei are besars

They did this before and they are good at this type of war. that is why we have played catch up for the first part. They are not used to our style of war, that is why when we fought they could not react to our domination. however once we stopped and said Okay we won..then they struck again..think about it...
