I absolutely see your point in the use of encircling the mote. My argument that taking Sadam's crown jewel and the siege of Stalin's namesake are as follows:
-first the assumption that a prolific air campagin is used by US as publicly stated parallels the used of von Richthofen's Stukas and the first few days of the beginnings of the siege. -Russian civillians were not evacuated but most were mobilized into fighting units. This parallels the deployment of weapons the Iraqi regime has undertook in the past few days as well as not letting any Iraqi civillians to leave the city (stated in the press as branded a traitor; also parallels the Stalinist regime's use of Comissars at the beginning of the Stalingrad campaign. -street to street fighting...nuff said Now i dont see the hardline Iraqis just giving up? Would you? Im sure they will have someone reporting back to the Intelligence minister on moral and then the killing of supposed "traitors" will take place....drawing another parralel with the Stalin Regime and campaign of Stalingrad... The German troops were not prepared for the urban fighting and "loathed house to house fighting." You think the US will be able to stroll down the street...no...it will be house to house combat BUT the US has taken steps to prepare for this type of warfare...MOUT as an example... I think i have provided enough "clarification" why I think it will be similair to Stalingrad and drew the parallels for all to see...I just hope it doesnt come to this style of fighting. Alot of death.... |

Thats the last thing I'm worried about. They WILL find weapons. It's just a matter of finding them out there buried under the desert, in garages, bunkers, trailers, basements, you name it. With no more restraints from Saddam, we will be free to look just about anywhere in the country for them. None of this bull, "Oh, today the inspectors can only look over there!". Plus, a lot of people don't realize it's not all about the weapons. As of now, the Iraqi People are tortured and oppressed. They are crying out for our help! For God's Sake, a dozen of their regular army already tried to surrender to British Forces out on patrol the other day. They can't wait to get out from under Saddam's stranglehold. I'd say 75% or more of the Reg. Army will surrender in the first few days of fighting. The only one's left will probably be the Republican Guard and very few other small groups.
