The military now has in the region 1,500 Marines...

That's about all they really need to to take Baghdad anyway.

Actually, I was going to ask what those 1,498 Marines were going to do while the other two were taking Iraq?

That is such a dumm statement.
We don't have to "take" anything.
Just find the factories and stockpiles and the means of production, wipe them out and leave.

Baghdad is useful as a target. Behave or lose it a piece at a a time.
. I say we start with all of Sadam's "palaces"...
You know, the ones he spent all that money on instead of saving those 600,000 Iraqi children who die each year?

And 75% of that force is a provisional service brigade to feed and support them, and includes two guys to put the padlock on Saddam's underground bunker.
