A strong (not necessarily large) American force dropped into the heart of Iraq would be invincible.

This is fatuous. Saddam disclosed in 1995 that he had 5000 gallons of weaponized Botulinum poison. Our forces would be sitting ducks.

And the Iraqi delivery system to get that Botulinum on fast moving armored columns over a wide front when U.S. air power has total domination of the Iraqi skies would be.......what?

In addition, during the Gulf War, the US emphatically stated that it would retaliate with nuclear weapons if Iraq used chemical or biological weapons against the coalition forces.

Saddams chemical and biological weapons will be just as effective this time around as they were in the Gulf War.
