I don’t plan to get into the habit of analyzing war news as it comes in, but I suspect the reason the U.S. hasn’t (as of this writing) unleashed Shock, Lock, and Barrel is that someone with credibility in the Iraqi government is trying to negotiate a surrender. The invasion will continue of course, but perhaps at a slower tempo to permit the surrender faction to consolidate power.
Colby Cosh points out something that’s bothered me ever since I heard of "Operation Just (Be)Cause." Oh, well that explains it.
