It was exactly 7 days of combat at 9:30 last night (EST).
We have troops stationed 50 miles out of Baghdad.
We recently took an airfield north of the city.
We did this without much help from other countries and without the ability to use Turkey to fly in from.
Yet all I hear is how we're meeting much more resistance from the Iraqi's. How things are being slowed. How the Iraqi forces are stronger than anticipated.
Anticipated by whom??
If this were really going to be easy, even France would have joined us.
