That's all . . . I am NOT talking about the changing strategy. . . . . Our military - unfettered by politics - is the Very Best (in history).

Running the entire operation of Qatar is not good enough? Launching the main attack from Kuwait? Flying sorties out of Saudi? Yeah there are no muslim nations involved.
Evidently NOT good enough FOR THE IRAQI PEOPLE to rise up against Saddam which is what the Coalition HOPED. They need to see ARAB SOLDIERS from MUSLIM nations FIGHTING Saddam's forces. They WILL believe then - not now.

Do you really think anyone inside of iraq has the real story of what is happening?

What about the arab(kurds) force in the north? They are working with us as well. I guess once again, that is not good enough.
The Kurds - the "natural" enemies of the people in the South? No, not good enough. I mean Al Jazeeara showing pictures of Egyptians, Jordanians, Syrians, Saudi and Turkish soldiers fighting with the Coalition under a UN flag.

Part of my "incursion" into Baghdad - besides getting Proof of WMD - would be to CONTROL the Iraq TV - broadcast on their airwaves so that the average Iraqi sees OUR irrefutable proof that Saddam has WMD.

I'm pretty sure they remember when he GASSED them...... I'm sure they are pleased to hear you are so concerned with them being fully aware though.

I don't have any "mod buddies" and didn't see your post.

Are you even aware of forum rules?

I also find you "entertaining" in a very juvenile sort of way.

Because we are not out of food, not out of water, and definitely not out of ammo.

Significantly, more civilians were informing foreign troops about the whereabouts of paramilitary forces and members of Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's Baath Party, British officials said.

appopin will not read such a report. Even if he did, he would just dismiss as propaganda.

Yeah, I've picked up on that. Still, I made my point and watched him change subjects/threads.

FUD

And since when has the media been accurate in its assessment of the war plans. Oh, and when did they get their hands on the war plans and when were they privy to meetings with the Joint Chiefs?

Well, it really sounds like they are starting to open a can of whoopass on the Republican Guard. AC 130 gunships are evidently pounding the crap out of them......:)

appopin is a dolt. Not because of his views, but because he never admits he is wrong and is too transparent in his(her) attempts to redfine what winning is or even what is being discussed in any thread he(she) slimes through. Until it starts to be more rational in discussions, I'm just going to ignore it.

I would hate to see what our forces could do if they had plenty of ammo, fuel, food and water.
