I don't mean to sound all conspiracy nutty here, but it seems if we wanted them gone, we could do it. I keep thinking back to that road in Iraq during Desert Storm with all the tanks just burning in a bottleneck.

Seems to me that if it really came down to it and they are being that brazen about it and we decided to do something about it... a few CBU-97's dropped from a B-52 would make pretty short work of it.
Right? So why aren't we? They're not like Al Qaeda, hiding out everywhere, they're having parades!!

How about US has no support in the area for visual confirmation of said convoy? Were you expecting locals to ring pentagon and alert them?
If it is all over the news, I'm sure our satellites, spy planes, etc... Can find them.
You're forgetting that they bought the missile defense package on their new Nissans.
That car company came a long way from my mom's '84 Datsun 4x4 light pick up. Hahaha!
