This and the reports that a top ranking Kurdish ally of Saddam surrending leaves little hope for Saddam and anyone willing to tough it out. I always hoped that there would be low casualties if we did have to go in and these reports prove that there will be low resitance and our troops will have the area cleared in no time. Could this end up being easier then ousting the Talibums?

Francis also said Saddam has Execution Squads lined up behind their troops to shoot anybody who tries to retreat or surrender.

All hype goin on here. This war has taken forever to get to and will be done in as little as 10 days.

Much easier than Afhany Talibans. 1 week max in Bagdad if no surrender. I give Saddam 36 hours to call it quits..

I'm hoping Saddam gets a bullet through his brain before an American shot is fired, and we get a signal from the provisional Iraqi government asking for "coalition assistance" in administering the country until a permanent government can be formed.

I really DON'T want to go to war, except as a last resort. But Saddam has to go, one way or another, and we need to get in there, root out the terrorists that we all know are in there, and get the documentation that proves the French and Germans have been in bed with Saddam since the end of the Gulf War.
