If you`re talking about Saddam`s “mother of all battles” statement, it was when he faced a 540K - size international force, 420K of which came out of the U.S. hide. This go-round won`t even be a 20th of that size. There`s no mandate to push his forces out of an occupied zone. Gaddafi can speak a bit more accurately about delivering hell to a small invading force.

In 1991, the country got solidly behind Ops Desert Shield and Storm, because Americans knew the mission and supported it.

No one knows this mission.
