Should the Republican Guard chose to there could be a battle..... But why would the Coalition Forces chose to fight a pitched battle with them when we have the aerial superiority and capability to do to them what was done to Saddam's Palaces in Baghdad. I think if the RG decides to wage a battle then 'shock & awe' will be brought to bear upon them like they've never dreamed.
Same with street battles in Baghdad.... why fight. Surround the city and stop all things going in such as supplies (food)..... take out a few key locations but easily replaced things such as pumps (water), transmission lines (electricity), then sit and wait. They can't survive forever. At some point they will have to come out.
Just my opinion.
