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. Perhaps, I'm not so sure about it though. I have serious misgivings. More likely there will be a coup in Baghdad when the Iraqi general staff realize the US is coming for real this time, and it doesn't pay to fear Saddam anymore. Once the Revolutionary Guard units are smashed, I think that's the most likely outcome, as long as they know they will be facing Abrams rolling down the Baghdad Express... Derek
