Your friend is a moron.

This is as much a public relations war as it is a military war.

Some battles are won (Iraq torturing it's own people and our POWs), some are lost (accidental shooting of the van full of civilians).

To turn Iraq into glass, to have the weather report for Baghdad be 5000 degrees and cloudy, etc. is just stupid.

The PEOPLE in Iraq are not our enemy. The military and Saddam's government are. Until they surrender.
