Vietnamization = Iraqization

Al-Jazzera is reporting a dramatic increase in the number of aerial assaults by US (coalition) forces in recent months.

"The number of US air raids increased particularly in the weeks leading up to last Thursday's election, from a monthly average of about 35 last summer to more than 60 in September and 120 or more in October and November."

So what's going on? An increasingly desperate US military, short on necessary ground troops, is trying to utilize their airpower to overcome their inadequecies on the ground.

What does this mean? More civilian casualties, more anger at the appearance of indiscriminate US firepower and on and on...
