Last group back reports that GO1 has been rescinded and that there are even marraiges being conducted over there. Of course I have no way of verifying this, but I am sure that if you constantly threaten people and then do not follow up on your threats, people will do whatever the hell they want anyway. There was more booze and sex in Kirkuk when I was there than I saw in the dorms at home. You would have thought the world was coming to an end the way some of the folks over there were behaving...
One fine group of gents kept bringing a female in every Friday that stayed through Sunday until we pointed out that every vehicle coming in the gate was being recorded by the AF and that occupants were customarily noted and logged by us as well. Funny how some people think they can get away with anything.

Iraq was never lost and Afghanistan was never quite the easy good war. Those in the media too often pile on and follow the polls rather than offer independent analysis. Campaign rhetoric and politics are one thing - the responsibility of governance is quite another.
