I haven't been to Iraq or Afghanistan in some time, but Colonel Moroney and Perigrino (especially the comments about the B.S. that the Troops go through just to try and do their jobs) are correct in my estimation. The problem is that it is quite dangerous to target Islam as a whole, any such blanket action would surely blow up in our faces.

The Lion was mentioned by Colonel Moroney and was infact used to some extent when I was in Iraq in 03. I believe they refered to their T-72's as "Lions of the Desert" as far back as Desert Storm. Many of our appeals to Iraqi military personnel used the Lion in reference to their honor, heart, and will to fight.... Kinda like "you fought the good fight but it's time to pack it in" messages. I honestly can't give you any effects due to the fact that no one stood and fought when our TF showed up at their door. They all kinda melted away.

Attacking the credibility, legitimacy, and competance of our enemies might have better results. I was very pleased to see the video released showing the out-takes of Idiot #1 trying to handle the SAW played on the MSM. The truth hurts....

Bottom line is we need to be more aggressive with our PSYOP and quit playing the reactionary game. The touchy feely stuff by itself is only good to a point.
