And Yet More of the Same

Rumsfeld suggests that we may need an increase in U.S. forces.

As of last count, there were 158,000 U.S. troops (not counting the rest of the coalition) in Iraq, down from a high of 161,000 during the Iraqi election on October 15.

So there is a good chance that we are going to see the number of U.S. troops in Iraq hit another new high fairly soon.

UPDATE: Sort of makes postings like this one seem a little naive, doesn't it?

That is all.
