But the Iraqi private with a bullet wound in the back of his head suggested something unusually grim. Up and down the 200-mile stretch of desert where the American and British forces have advanced, one Iraqi prisoner after another has told captors a similar tale: that many Iraqi soldiers were fighting at gunpoint, threatened with death by tough loyalists of President Saddam Hussein. More and more stories are appearing like this, and it is becoming increasingly clear that the somewhat less than enthusiastic reception by the Iraqi people to the American liberators is due to fear and terror imposed by Saddam loyalists. When this war is finally won, I suspect we will see a decidedly different attitude from the Iraqi people. Regards, Huey
