Maybe Ramo thought of Gauleiter Bremer as he just got back from D.C. after some talks with the big chief in the white house. I don't know, but it would seem reasonable that the coalition forces have to work within the guidelines given by the civilian administration. In that context, the armed forces are probably not allowed to start out with a strategy that onvolves the destruction of Iraqi homes without the approval or acceptance of Gauleiter Bremer or Bush. But I'm only guessing.

Bremer Pulling a Sharon?

I think the military command is independent of Bremer and reports into Central Command, from there to the Joint Chiefs and ultimately to Rumsfeld.
I am not sure about Bremer. I assume he reports directly into Powell because his title is "Ambassador."http://tools.wikimedia.de/~gmaxwell/jorbis/JOrbisPlayer.php?path=John+Williams+The+Imperial+M arch+from+The+Empire+Strikes+Back.ogg&wiki=en

bottom line is that this sh1t is working
about damn time they took the leash off instead of waiting around to get shot at
if the tactics stayed the way they were going the terrorists would just get bolder and bolder
2. What, specifically, do you think this would do in preventing Ba'athist/Arab nationalist rebels from getting bolder and bolder? Given that Palestinian terrorism against Israelis is still alive and kicking after a few decades of this ****, I have to say your claim is bull****.
I don't get the headline. Bremer pulling a Sharon. Is Bremer the one who is actually making the decisions in the military sphere? I thought he was in control of the civil administration only."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. "

I don;t see how this new campaing has been "working". I generally oppose things like house demolitions, and since no mention is made of arms caches in any of them, i don;t think that is a valid explination for this: given Israel's tract record with this tactic, I don;t see the point of using it, and hopefully it won;t be used much more.If you don't like reality, change it! me
