Hey Saddam, I think they may be attacking from the south, better move all your troops down there. No...attacking from the east, move all troops east. Wait, maybe the west.....

Fresh Meat!

Boy, is Saddam stupid or what? This guy is great. Mosul and Kirkuk are in the open plains. This guy isn't going to slug it out in the hill country? He'd better think again. He's going up against V Corps, the Brits, and of course, the Turks (two Turkish Divisions, both mech infantry, you heard it here first).

He just declared that his regular Army guys are going to be B-52 bait! The troops aren't idiots, either. They know that they've got no aircap.

Of course, his BEST troops are surrounding Baghdad to put keep watch on his most trusted Generals.

You know, General Abdul, you have been with me since the Old Days. But I just can't help but notice that you stopped applauding before everybody else......

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Ya think Sadman WhoInsane ever read The Art of War? Think he knows he can be defeated merely by running back and forth to deal with the barking dogs on each border? Think he knows that even if he knows that, he can't not run back and forth, because the minute he stops, he gets demolished by the hordes who come across the border he ignored?

It's kinda funny when you think about it. He's damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. He's finished, and there's not a bloody thing he can do about it other than make it worse for himself.

Based on the paradigm shift in the way warfare is conducted in the open, this is going to be one ugly slaughter. You would think the generals are not too pleased about the decimation about to take place in the field. I cannot believe they will let Hussein and his evil progeny commit national suicide.
