Can you spell stupid? What do they think they're attacking this time? (More trucks carrying supply troops and gasoline?)

Can you spell stupid? Well, the casualty count is between 250 to 500 with no Allied casualties.

Stratfor's latest combat report regarding the clash with our 3/7:
2328 GMT - Stratfor sources say that the Iraqi formation engaged in battle with the U.S. 3-7 Cavalry between Karbala and An Najaf is likely two infantry battalions from the 14th Mechanized Brigade of the 2nd Armored Al Medina Division of the Republican Guard. Stratfor is trying to verify the report.

What do they think they're attacking this time? Longing for 72 virgins....or, more likely, the growing understanding that Iraqi bad guys will pay for what they did to the Iraqi people, imho.
