We do much more destruction with conventional weapons than we would do if we used only a few low yield nuclear devices.
Raghead not towelhead.
Iraqis/syrians/Iranians don't look the same as the others when they have a gun pointed at you.
Enemies growing stronger after being attacked is silly and a product of movies. As long as you don't attack someone's values, you can change popular opinion which is why your country isn't ruled by the Nazi's. (even though we attacked them with just about everything we had)
They will take losses and they do fight dirty because they don't have much else to lose primarily because their leaders took everything from them already. Secular muslim societies can and do work very well.
This is not vietnam. Vietnam could have been decisive and won 7-8 years early if we would have unleashed the fury. The North Vietnamese came to the tables after every B-52 bombing campaign that was unleashed.
The largest difference here is that we have really lost sight of who was against us here. Many of our so called allies subverted the economic sanctions that could have had massive effects on Hussein and Iraq. They brought this war as much as he did. But hey, we gave Anan the by and we'll let them slide as well.
