You Know back when we americans decided to fight in the Gulf back in 91, they said it would last for years and there would be some 30000 dead. Well it lasted 6 mo total and less that 100 hours of ground fighting. Fewer that 200 dead. No body knows for sure what is going to happen in two days let alone a year or two down the road. Just buck up a little with that legendary British Stiff Upper Lip. This is not WW-II nor are these guys all that bright. These dim wits will be a whole lot easier to deal with that the Germans in WW-I and WW-II and the Soviets in the Cold war. These guys really did themselves in big time. You guys that are in training right now, finish, those of you that are thinking about it, well keep your eyes and ears open, in a couple of months things will look better if not in another week or two. We Americans will be back to normal in another week or so. This got us mad and when we get mad, we unite and do what has to be done. Its going to get fixed a lot faster that you would belive.
