Russia has operatives in Iraq no doubt. But the intelligence they gather will be sold to the USA. Putin will do nothing to endanger Americans.

Make no mistake, the USA is much more valuable to Russia than Iraq.

The US should construct a news set that looks like Iraq National TV. Then, during the crescendo of battle, they should blow the real place to smithereens w/B-2 bombers or cruise missiles. Subsequently, they should get authentic looking Iraq (exile) reporters to go on the set and then 'bogus broadcast' live on all domestic Iraq TV frequencies, that an internal 'split' in the regime has occured with a call to arms against Saddaam's remaining loyal forces, that rumors are Saddam has been killed, and that region after region of Iraq military is surrendering to an overwhelming invasion force of the US. All other domestic, enemy controlled frequencies should be jammed, rendered inert, or their facilities obliterated. This may give courage to the oppressed people of Iraq to rise up.
