Since "ignorance" is merely a state of being uninformed, and neither an attack nor insult, I make no apologies.

Pritcke, due to the nature of my situation there is only so much detail I may give. Concerning checkpoints, I've said pretty much it. The locals do know the deal.

As for pointed remarks. I am in a position that leaves me with little time nor patience for extended hyperbole. Despite all the sniping that goes on in the world press, US troops are not the "Bad Guys".

For those wondering "what war is" ... it's simple. When you have opposing groups of people ready to kill each other, those groups are at war. Any other definition is just literary fluffery.

The actual von Klaussian definition would be "warfare is the extension of politics through other means."
