The Kurds would be good for behind the lines guerrilla warfare leading up to a massive US assault


You may be right, but I think we are planning to use them like the "Northern Alliance" was used, as troops to clean out what we hope will be a disorganized rabble after the bombing.

Remember, the Iraqis will have nothing but Infantry, and very little of that, after we hit them. Their tank units are in a bad way, and the Helicopters they have won't last past day one.

That is very open country, and anytime they bunch the infantry up, we will slaughter them.
