Wonderful news

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Intercepts of Iraqi military radio traffic indicate that some Iraqi troops do not feel driven to defend their country's regime. A well-placed U.S. official said Tuesday that those transmissions suggest a number of Iraqi military units "are not going to hold it together" during a U.S. military attack.

The radio communications suggest a great deal of "consternation" within some of the units -- including Republican Guard units, the official said on the condition of anonymity. Those units are considered to be the best trained, best equipped and most loyal to Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.

What these iraqi soldiers need more than anything are decent jobs. Hopefully the restructuring effort sets up a lot of new companies in Iraq. Its a highly educated society with a high population of people under 25.
