The BBC (left wing?) quoted an article in the Wall Street Journal (right
wing?) that said the following:

"As U.S. troops have -surged- into Baghdad in a quest to bring stability
there, enemy fighters have moved into the surrounding towns". (Well,
Duh! What a big surprise!)

"[...keeping them off-balance] is the best they can hope for under the
new 'surge strategy', which some U.S. officers in Iraq say does little
more than chase insurgents from one part of the country to another".

So, if you are one of the naive that thinks the surge will work (or if
your name is "W"), maybe you should take a word of advice from the
military officers actually there on the ground.
