Isn't the sub-plot just as excellent? The commandos' job in Iraq is basically finished! Posted by: Michael Williams at February 24, 2004 2:03 PMIt might be safe to say that TF 121 will be using lessons they learned from the hunt for Saddam to look for bin Laden. Which would mean that Iraq wouldn't be such a distraction, after all. Posted by: Dave T. at February 24, 2004 5:54 PMPost a comment
