Here we go again

So, according to Drudge, the US has "postponed plans to mount an attack against insurgents holed up here and instead will attempt to regain control of this violence-wracked city without a full-scale offensive."

Another link to the story in the Washington Post.

This is allegedly due to their concern "about the repercussions an attack could generate across Iraq and the Arab world."

This is more idiotic politically-correct strategery that is going to get more and more of our soldiers killed. Lunacy like this has to be stopped if we're ever going to truly gain control over the Islamofascist insurgency. Here we've had a golden opportunity to wipe out more jihadists than we can shake a stick at, and instead, we're sitting in the sand playing with our own stick.

This is depressing.
