"Iraq is not Afghanistan..."Yeah, I don't recall hearing about hundreds of Taliban or Al Qaeda surrendering to journalists.
To: Jack-A-Roe
That's correct: Iraq is not Afghanistan; It's flatter.
They have nowhere to hide...

"Iraq is not Afghanistan..."Of course not. Afghanistan has a future.

Good grief, if we could capture all this Islamic hot air we could float a fleet of dirigibles and not worry about B-52s.
To: Jack-A-Roe
They're right..........the Taliban were tougher. These candy asses will fold like a soggy, year-old newspaper.
To: Jack-A-Roe
Iraq said on Friday the United States would not be able to bring down President Saddam Hussein the same way it toppled Afghanistan's Taliban... Not a problem. We're all about "diversity" these days...

Next year's headline:

Not to mention the fact that they have a more or less traditional army - uniforms and everything!

Iraq! Should be called Icrack!
To: PrivateIdaho
Excellent point - I'd like to ask a serviceman who fought both in Iraq and in Afghanistan what his opinion is of the two in terms of fighting men. Care to make a wager on the answer?

Iraq Tells U.S. It's No AfghanistanTo quote Ralph Peters, "American troops went through the Iraqi Army faster than Lizzie Grubman could back an SUV through a Hamptons Party."

Your no Japan or Nazi Germany either. If these idiots could fight or work as hard as they blow smoke they would be the dominant world culture.
To: newsperson999
"... Us troops killed in Gulf war 157..Iraqi troops killed 100,000.." I thought the estimated number of Iraqi dead was reported to be as high as 400,000.
That said, I hope it was the lower number. Those poor bastards were thrown into a meatgrinder by their fiendish dictator.

That's right. It's Panama. And Noreiga needs a cellmate.
To: SMASH IMPERIALIST LIBERALISM!!
Next year's headline: "Iran Tells U.S. It's No Iraq"
2004 Headline:
"North Korea Tells U.S. It's No Iran."
2005 Headline:
"China Says It's No North Korea"
