Several important military and political decisions remain to be made before any attack, officers said. Britain is redeploying about 850 troops from Basra to an area south of Baghdad I find this story amazing. The Brits move 850 men (a battalion) a coupla hundred miles and it makes the US papers four days in a row. We probably have 850 men driving up and down that highway everyday. We have 152 equivalent sized units in Iraq. When was the last time our press reported on an American battalion sized troop movement? Even more amazing is this battalion has a rep as one of the UK's toughest, yet 40 US Marines (one little platoon) were tasked to provide security for the move.
