Seems like the Iraqis didn't just decided to run away from cover out into the open. They were trying to take advantage of a local sandstorm to run away. Little did they know just because they can't see us doesn't mean we can't see them 8)

Ooops...
Just what strategery are they following anyway?
Heard on Limbaugh that they are following the Bin Laden Mogadishu model. Don't think the strategy of opportunity works well with American planners who understand, now, that thinking outside the box is imperative in order to win.

sources estimated the column at about 120... When the Brits get done with it, I don't think there's going to be 120 anymore.
