<One of the most refreshing and perhaps as his last act of goodness, is the absence of wmd's and destruction of the oil facilities. This has not been mentioned anywhere although it was discernable from the first few days of the invasion or liberation.> The swiftness of the move and containment of the main forces within Basra the infamous 11th Div was reason what he did not torch the whole 1568 wells, around Rumaillah the fields they were nicely charged and primed to go, 9 of them were extinguished by the Kuwait Oil company. Tommy Frank took him by surprise; he had expected shock and awe for at least 21 days. Little did him and his cohorts realised that the armour will move into Nasseriah within three days. Lets give due credit where it is due. It is strategic planning of the CENTCOM, they fought a clean war, war is always dirty but to conquer al land with mass of Iraq was no mean feat. I just cannot imagine the day when Russians, French or Chinese have this kind of economic and military power. Power responsibility equation is well tilted in favour of USA. WMD if he can use it on his own people lurking behind some expanse of desert we may find bio-chemical weapon grade ingredients, the search has just begun, like Sahhaff daily lie show I am sure that this facade will also pull down soon.
