Of course, those Iraqi units, (and the individual members thereof) may be a bit more "fragmented" after latest bombing raids.

"Do not play poker with George W. Bush."

Yup, misunderestimation alert!

[Mister Baredog]

American forces made a determined effort to persuade the 51st division to give in, including leaflets and propaganda broadcasts

Yea and a MOAB just in case

Southack,
I borrowed your felicitous and wise words for a tagline.

I heard an interview on radio yesterday with a retired general who had commanded troops in the Gulf War. He said the 51st Division is an all-conscript division that had made a pretty poor showing last time out and was thought to be even weaker now than then. He predicted it would fold pretty quickly, and it looks like he was right on the mark.

I believe Sadam is now residing under Iraq. Far under.


As in Hell.

In that bracket, I've got W., MOAB, Evidence & Hidden Weapons, and Tomahawks as the Final 4, with Evidence& beating out MOAB in a thriller.

My reasoning: W. can't be MOAB's coach when they play each other, so he loses there, and I think the landslide of Evidence we get when this is done will do far more damage to our former allies than any single Tomahawk might do... and while a MOAB can scatter LOTS of Evidence&, Evidence& does have its own Hidden Weapons, so it takes the Final. ;^)

I just typed "v+for+victory" into the Google image search, and found it at http://www.military-graphics.com I've been searching for a bigger, printable one myself. If you find one, let me know.

"V?"

As in the old TV series about the reptiles that took over the earth?

Important life saving note to Iranian and North Korea Generals. This is a really important action for you to learn from:

THESE IRAQI GENERALS CHOOSE WISELY TO LIVE AND NOT TO DIE FOR A MURDERING THUG. YOU WILL HAVE THE SAME DECISION TO MAKE SOON. CHOOSE WISELY!
