Who will bring legitimacy to Koffi and his band of ne'er do wells?
The battle plan:
The problem with the Iraqi army is that they were using Russian defense tactics:
1. Engage the enemy.
2. Draw him into your territory.
3. Wait until winter sets in.
The Iraqi verions of the classic army regulations can be summarized as:
1. If it doesn't move, hide behind it.
2. If it does move, surrender to it.
Iraqi Air Force motto:
I came, I saw, Iran

So in Iraq we see the Russian defense strategies. In Afghanistan we saw their offensive strategies (as compared to ours that followed). What exactly ever made those Russians so frightening;)
