US forces could learn from Irish peacekeepers
The Americans should be taking a long, hard look at what the Irish have achieved in this field and be putting this into operation on the streets of Iraqi towns and villages. In fact, I believe that each major American unit on the ground in Iraq should have a small number of experienced Irish troops attached to them for the eventualities that they will inevitably meet.
America’s failure and their already obvious gung-ho policy towards Iraqi civilians will further alienate the civilian population and this will lead in turn to more American casualties.
