Lets define "win". If wreaking havoc with the NATO, demoralizing UN beyond repair, show US diplomacy as inept, turn the whole world against the US, drill a hole on US and UK budgets, drag military forces into a camp not easy to escape; the Iraqis are clearly winning.

And the house to house fighting hasn't started yet. Wait for "pockets of resistance" on the news, then you'll know what I mean. The best outcome should have been pizza.

Gary,
More of the Government and media way of manipulating the public mind?

You are asking a wrong question.
When did American have mind of their own since World war I? Now Vast majority are zombies of TV, and to top it off
Miss. Lewidnessuky (Clinton's cigar fame) will host a show on none other than Fox.
Now Fox is the leading new channel!
Go figure that out.

<<Why would he stick around to get wiped out?? He has always seemed more concerned about himself >>

You had better do your homework about this guy. While rising to power he fought battles with police that seemed hopeless and would not surrender. All accounts are that he will fight to the death rather than flee....You are describing a rational being....Not the case here.

There have been many experts who have talked of his obsession with Viet Nam and that body bags are the key to American loss of will.

<<I don't see how Saddam thinks he could possibly win.>>

You see that the battle is ongoing...Somebody thinks that they can win.
