Elite has changed its meaning in this war coverage. I have seen it used less the last day or two.

GIs delivered another humiliating blow to Saddam Hussein's rotting regime...

Very nicely phrased.

Soldiers also found chemical protection suits, gas masks and nerve-agent antidotes.

Saddam's campaign promise during the last election (which he won with nearly 100% of the vote): "A chem suit, gas mask, and vial of atropine in every home!"

Those people don't want to fight. A few of them do, but not many.
