in Iraq, wouldn't it make more sense to create a small neighborhood say at a corner of four square blocks, surround it with a wall, allow no one to leave, and bring in food supplies to them, rather than allow people to head into open markets where terrorists can set off powerful bombs? The military can check out each person to make sure they are not a terrorist. They could also set up a school in their for children. They could create a safe mosque. As they make a neighborhood 'secure' they could expand. It seems like a safer alternative over seeing 70 to 150 or more innocent people killed each week. Why hasn't the U.S. military considered this? At this point, allowing people to walk around is not an option any longer. It's too dangerous. With a small compound, they might better secure it from rock and grenade attacks, too. Granted, this might smack in the face of Democracy U.S. style, but shouldn't life be more important for the moment over flag-waving politics?
