Jan. 8 - What to do about the deepening quagmire of Iraq? The
Pentagon's latest approach is being called "the Salvador
option"-and the fact that it is being discussed at all is a measure
of just how worried Donald Rumsfeld really is. "What everyone agrees is
that we can't just go on as we are," one senior military officer told
NEWSWEEK. "We have to find a way to take the offensive against the
insurgents. Right now, we are playing defense. And we are losing." Last
November's operation in Fallujah, most analysts agree, succeeded less
in breaking "the back" of the insurgency-as Marine Gen. John Sattler
optimistically declared at the time-than in spreading it out.
