heard from a guy i know--a navy journalist stationed in italy today. i
tried to extract vital info out of him, but the best i got was that ground
troops would be moving in soon. duh. i guess within the week. i guess
they figure that they aren't going to be able to control info about the air
bombing fuck ups, paticularly since the fuck ups are inevitable. what was
it, 2/3 of the bombs dropped on iraq missed? anyway, the argument they'll
make is that ground troops will be *more* surgical than air strikes. and
they've successfully managed to convince yer avg USer that this is all
necessary to stop the next Hitler so not too many folks are going to freak
out once the body bags start coming home. well hell they kept secret the
marines who died in grenada. whatever.
