Ho Chi Minh said the only thing that really scared him were the B52's.

If there's any way to give these and any other Iraqi troops an opportunity to save themselves before the shooting starts (without signing a death warrant for their familes...man this crap makes me want to wring Saddam's neck) it would be truly a mitzvah. Hard to do, I know, and maybe not at all practical. But if it were possible it would be a beautiful way to figuratively scream SHUT UP at the whole "Americans just want to kill Iraqi's" crowd.

As soon as they know action is imminent, no doubt there will be a huge number of them slipping quietly across the border and even more quietly giving themselves up.

Highway to Hell was when the Iraqi soldiers started to flee and were driving anything they could to get away. It was very brutal: over 1,000 Iraqi soldiers were killed on a two mile stretch of a highway.

"We flew over the Highway to Hell on the way out and from the air it was really spectacular," Olson says. "It's amazing to see the destruction that can be caused in such a short period of time."

After setting the oil wells on fire, the Iraqi soldiers fled Kuwait by the fastest means possible, the main highway back to Iraq. These soldiers took with them the goods they had looted from both private homes and businesses (appliances, TVs, VCR's, gold, cars anything of value). Their convoy was intercepted and the results of the firefight is shown above. Afterwards while checking for wounded, our soldiers found that every vehicle was packed with stolen goods from Kuwait.
