Aside from growing violence on the ground
when is somebody going to report the increased amount of air support activity being used
that includes B-52 bombers, 2000 lbs., A-10
ground attack planes firing depleted uranium etc.
President Bush told us “major combat is over”
two and a half years ago but just on February 10, 2006 B-52s and A-10s were needed for 55 strikes in Iraq and 20 in Afghanistan.
None of this major combat air action is ever shown in the news media but it certainly contradicts the claim that resistance is
growing weaker.
We also have hundreds of heayy airlift cargo flights daily because ground transport is still to dangerous.
Since neither Iraq or Afghanistan has an air force it would seem that US forces will be needed for the air support and heavy airlift mission for many years to come.
