This is a formula for a possible huge escalation in American casualties and of course many more Iraqi casualties, " In a radical departure from previous sweeps of the city, there will be 27 mini-bases, known as joint security stations. American troops will sleep and eat there alongside Iraqi forces". http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2089-2546344_1,00.html Not only will our troops be sleeping surrounded by enemies the Iraqi troops they are training and fighting with are well infiltrated and can hardly be trusted. Sleeping with the enemy can only get you killed.

This story shows the folly of Bushie's surge strategy. our troops cant trust any Iraqi whether they are training them or sleeping in quarters with them. This is the worst case scenario possible for our soldiers. Sharing a foxhole with the enemy is suicide or at least fratricide by the insane American CIC. "Over the weekend, a convoy of SUV's containing insurgents disguised at US soldiers evaded checkpoints and attacked a secure facility from the inside. The insurgents targeted US troops, killing seven. Iraqi troops are not targeted.

The secure facility is the first of many that will be used for President Bush's so-called "surge" plan. The compound will be used as a base for U.S. and Iraqi soldiers in each area that troops will "clear and hold." http://www.rawstory.com/news/2007/Bombs_kill_over_75_in_central_0122.html
