I thought I tried to answer that question. Both of your points weren\'t completely true. War and the action of war an the reasons behind war, the aftermath of war, everything about war and hell for that matter isn\'t a black and white issue. I thought Rumsfield disregarded some pretty good questions, but while in war I am suprised they have allowed as many people to cover with as much freedom as they have this war. This would never have been allowed to this extent years ago. But what is known for sure is that because they are being open, they will still be gaurded on some issues due to the fact that this is a war.
Like I had said earlier you continue fighting until the threat has been nuetrilized. The regime change and disarmamnet of the Iraqi people is the key objective. While their is still resistance, you can\'t just drop arms and walk away. They will continue their march towards Baghdad and Kirkuk and they are taking out military compunds and anything that would give them trouble. They will not take out anything that is not detrimental to their objectives. They are being very careful to only destroy what is necessary to their objectives.
