I agree with blue02hd post, impressions as well as presentations are inherently everything. During the oversight committee’s hearing concerning security/contractors & corporations, Waxman as well as a few others couldn’t comprehend the fact that the military is not comfortable in providing the service that these business provide. I believe the Rep (R) from North Carolina, painted a clear picture to his fellow members when mentioning how it is simply not feasible for the above to take place. A diplomat is not going to arrive in an armored military convoy, to meet with local sheiks, clansmen or what have you, because of the message that is conveyed to the populous. Secondly, in the article it mentions that “Shiites who hated the U.S. occupiers and foreigners aligned with al-Qaeda — often managed to stay one step ahead of JIEDDO. They changed the kind of explosives they planted and varied the locations of the devices and the way they detonated them.” Hypothetically, if I’m Mr. Ihateamericans, I wouldn’t be good at being a bad guy if I didn’t evolve in hopes to counter western efforts, resulting in a gross abundance of high definition explosives applied to targets.
