World opinion? Come on now. The term "all's fair in love and war" comes to mind. They behead our innocents, we conjure conflagration in brilliant white light.

Yes, the world will pay attention. They'll say "Oh no!" and soon realize we have enough to drop on other countries if they get out of line.

You've said so yourself as have others here, including the president himself: world opinion does not matter if world opinion is not in our best interest.

What I'm getting at is we aren't winning Iraq. We're attempting to douse that fire with water from an eye dropper. It's now time to step things up - a few notches. Therefore, I think tactical nukes or at least carpet bombing is the way to go. I mean, really, Tabs, let's get this crap over with so that Bush or Kerry doesn't have to contend with it for the next four years.
