This doesn't show the limits of US power. The US has the most high tech army in the world. We could turn the Middle East into glass if we wanted too. But were not fighting this war like that. Were not trying to destroy buildings and kill everyone. Only a select group of people. Were trying to win "the hearts and mind" of the people. This is where we went wrong. The terrorists were fighting fight like pussies. NOT like soldiers.

Were not fighting a war like WW2. In WW2 Patton made sure we won. And thats what we need now, another Patton.

Give us a REAL war (Iraq isn't a real war, we are not fighting the Iraqi people, were fighting a select few. Were trying to help these people build a new nation for christs sake). Like if China or Ruassia go at us. They'll be counting bodies like you couldn't imagine. We'd definately win. It's not even a question.

Using the Iraq war to gauge how well the United States military is would be a foolish thing to do.
