I find it hard to believe that two hundred perps would be so stupid as to all gather in one building, particularly in Basra. We shall find out one way or the other I guess in time.

I guess that when you are in a city of a million people-- under your control--you just don't think hard enough about the capabilities of the U.S. military.

Normally I'd agree but the Iraqi military has a history of really dumb moves. BTW, whatever happened with that 1000-vehicle convoy heading south from Baghdad? Heard about it constantly for a day, then nothing.

They were stupid enough to leave the cover of the city and send a column out to engage British special forces, where they were soundly whacked.
