It's more like one of those bad skits on Saturday Night Live that they keep repeating every week with the same annoying character - only instead of GoatBoy or CanteenBoy it's Hussein.

There won't be too many of them that die. The real training goes on after lights out in the barracks when the guys get together and talk about the best way to surrender. The French have volunteered to infiltrate men into the Iraqi army for just this purpose. It's the French contribution to the war effort.

Iraq is not the only one we have to worry about if we attack them..info I found this morning in a search...
October 2001 - The United States has quietly acknowledged that Iraq and Syria have rapidly developed military cooperation. U.S. officials and defense sources said Iraq and Syria have been coordinating in military exercises as well as communications, command and control. They said the cooperation has increased significantly in recent months...The source said Iraqi and Syrian troops have integrated their anti-aircraft and command and control systems along their mutual border.

"The sources said the cooperation is also linked to Iran, Syria's leading ally."
So Iran wants to dance too.

So you can measure progress during the next one.

"distracting the enemy in different directions by using light and medium weapons." Iraqi's practicing waving flashlights to distract us...

I'm sure they are now thoroughly prepared in soiling themselves and surrender techniques
To: ravingnutter
Better tell those Syrian troops not to stand too close behind the Iraqis. A good way to get trampled
To: Sparta
Sounds like the Iraqis are (belatedly) trying to develop an unconventional warfare capability (i.e. to strike at our rear area and follow-on troops after their units are by-passed in the initial assault). Too little, and way too late: any stay-behind "martyrs" they leave on our lines of communication will be far more likely to surrender than to fight to the death.

(DEAD MEN PLAYING WAR ALERT) LOL!

I mean... it's not funny, but ...

I didn't figure this would only involve Iraq. It's winding up to be WWIII pretty much, just like WWII came looking for us too.

They should be pracitcing the fine art of digging their foxholes with a slightly sloping bottom so that they can be buried in em facing mecca. Cut's down on the time DOD mortuary affairs/graves and registration has to put in cleaning up the mess Iraqis are going to make if they don't give SadAssed Insane a one way ticket out of town NOW !
Stay Safe !!
