As I note in my blog entry
here, Bush said today that we will beat the insurgents.
The man is an absolute loon. As I document in my post, no country has EVER, in the history of the world, militarily beaten an insurgency without killing most, or all, of the people it's trying to conquer. (and, in case you miss the point, 'win'='conquer')
The GlobalSecurity.org report I quote in my blog entry, that details what revolutionary war is all about and its history, does mention one 'win', in the Phillipines; oh, but wait! It was a politcal win, not a military win. Rats.
So, Bush is saying that he's going to do something that never, in the history of the world, has been done before.
And he's doing it when the Pentagon is telling him that FARC (Columbia), where we have troops, is expanding to become a threat to the U.S. itself. We can't even beat an insurgency on our own continent. (link to report in my blog entry, also)
So, my guess is that Bush has had a seizure and is in a delerium.
