#4  Apparently they have not paid attention to their history. The 'fog of war' is not just a saying . . . it is deadly serious. Even the numbers given by coalition forces are subject to scrutiny. If you don't see bodies . . . you cannot count the dead. What the terrorists don't understand is the value of body armor and good combat medics. Not that they are paying attention anynway . . .
