The word got around that to fight the Americans was to die quickly. Nothing worked against them, and they would keep coming at you and kill you.

Superior training coupled with superior weapons coupled with superior tacts destroyed the Iraqis. This old addage is proven true yet again: "The more you sweat in training, the less you bleed in battle."

And one more thing---superior training and weapons used in the context of the "western way of war." That is key. Good training and modern weapons used by non-western armies is still ultimately inferior.

Allow me to add...........superior leadership, superior attitude, superior guts, and a moral cause.
