To anyone who has ever read or studied military battles the outcome is clear.

We have superior firepower.
We have air dominance.
We have mobility.
We can cycle troops to keep them fresh.
We have secure supply lines (despite media myth).

The enemy has inferior weapons
The can not move without being decimated.
Their troops have nowhere to rest.
Their supply lines don't exist.

The saying is that privates talk tactics and generals talk logistics. Any supply trucks reaching the Medina division? Doubt it. Fresh water? Food?

In WWII, once you surrounded the enemy with ground forces it was over for them. Why? Because they no longer had supply lines.

The media doesn't understand, but the Medina divsion (RG) is surrounded. Our ground forces are part of it. But our air dominance "surrounds" them by not allowing supplies to get through.

Every time you see a media graphic of the Medina RG division sw of baghdad, view it as if it were surrounded by coalition forces. It is over for them already.
