Secondly, he assumes that the Fedayeen and other goons will roam the countryside with impunity because the citizens love to be used as suicide bombers and human shields. I agree with you that the author's nightmare scenario is unlikely for this reason. The one risk is if liberal internationalists lead the U.S. (or U.N.) to prevent the coming, and much needed, bloodbath of Baathist scum.

Phase III would then be to amass enough semi-conventional power to overwhelm the U.N. and interim government mechanisms.
Thereby alienating the only friends outside Iraq they will really have.

Phase V:
Saddam has himself cryogenically frozen and launched into space aboard a especially equipped scud. He remains frozen in space for 30 years and comes back in the year 2033 to restart his evil regime.
A time machine will be used to go back in time to 2003 to retrieve GW Bush to save the year 2033 from certain disaster.
I think I've heard it something like that.
