Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein yesterday threw waves of marauding paramilitary forces from Baghdad against the Army's mechanized 5th Corps, while Iraqi tanks dashed from the besieged southern city of Basra, only to be pounded by waves of air strikes.

The 5th Corps and its tank-laden 3rd Infantry Division, on their drive to Baghdad, have killed more than 1,000 of the fanatical fighters led by Saddam's personal militia, the black-hooded Fedayeen Saddam, commanders said.

Saddam is sending his attack forces south in convoys of civilian trucks, or even buses, that make it nearly impossible for allied pilots 10,000 feet up to identify them as military targets.

Excellent move, Mr. Hussein. Please double or triple your efforts immediately. Less of these soldiers to worry about when going into Baghdad.
