The depth of distrust and hatred for Saddam Hussein among these army officers astounded us. "He does not trust us," one general told me, "To him we were expendable. That's why he positioned the Republican Guard with an escape route, and left the regular army to be defeated."

Maybe we could enlist enemy troops to finish off Saddam...
