Cowboys and Indians:	HANK1	12/06/06
Why don't our soldiers in Iraq take a lesson from the Indians who roamed the plains during the old Wild West days? They surrounded wagon trains. No escape was possible. Why don't our soldiers use the same stategy in Iraq. Surround Baghdad, synchronize their watches and then start moving towards the center of that hell hole? The old squeeze play. Our planes and choppers could protect their 'backs' and take care of any trouble that may arise north, south, east and west. Since Bush is sending 30,000 more troops to the area, I think this strategy might work. HANK

That has been done in several cities in Iraq. I believe that the loss of life was considered too high for our soldiers and for innocent civilians.
