ROTFLMAO...My God you're listening to the Iraqi propaganda. UM Qsar, Basra are for all practical purposes under control. Every tank battle has been a disaster for the RG.

<<You know that the drive into Bagdad' proximity is just a propaganda coup, don't you? >>

And a damn successful one as evidenced by Saddams party leaders fleeing the city with their ill gotten loot. What do you think the RG troops are gonna do when they find out about that? Saddamns spokesman claiming that this is all Hollywood demonstrates their desperation.

<<British -.... are around Basra for 17 days. >>

But they have taken the city with what? 30 casualties? How many Iraqis have died and or been captured there? What sense would it make to charge in and take the city in a week with hundreds of casualties? You're faulting them for being too good.

<sigh> If you ain't convinced by now there is little help for your creditability.
