Just a thought

Listening to NPR news this morning, I heard a lot of talk about the upcoming attack on Fallujah—described as the most decisive attack to date that would settle matters once and for all. The way it was described reminded me of initial discussions of the pre-war shock and awe tactics in which officials anticipated upwards of 100,000 civilian deaths. Fortunately, shock and awe didn’t happen—then. But what about now? I am absolutely cynical enough to believe the Bushies would pull this off the day before the election. Prove me wrong, Bushies. Please.
