    I am.

    It will be another Vietnam!


    seriously, though, It seems that the Allies tried to bite off a lil' more than they could chew at once. There is no doubt they'll eat Iraq, but that sure made them choke a bit.

      Choke, sputter.

      I will not discuss Vietnam.

        They're all wusses.
        Dressing in civilain clothes, fighting from homes.
        So, who's fault is it when Iraq's innocent civilians are killed?

        America, they're all wusses

        They drop bombs from thousands and thousands of feet high..
        Use artillery and basically equipment 1000 times as efficient and costly than Iraq's equipment

        So, is it their fault they use whatever tactics they can find to resist the Americans?

        They know that if they engage in regular battle they don't even stand a chance... Iraqi troops get killed all the time, while Americans lose troops mainly due to accidents...

              Says someone from a loser country which hasn't contributed much of anything historically, was quickly over run in both world wars, and whose main historical action of note was their atrocious rule in the Congo. Those Africans your country slaughtered sure didn't have as good as weapons tech as you did.

                  We have a loser country ey??

                  -At least we don't participate in the war, and THAT would make us losers..?

                  no historical contribution?

                  -Oh gee, you're another one of those ignorant Americans that only know about their own civil wars, and never have learnt about the rest of the world?

                  quickly overrun in both World Wars?

                  -true, what did you expect with the zillions of troops the germans had, and the superior arms of theirs? You could compare it with America invading Iceland, I bet Iceland wouldn't be able to do much either.

                  our main historical action our rule in Congo that was atrocious?

                  -it was atrocious yes, but don't forget that everywhere on the world the colonizers were being atrocious to their colonies, it's not like it was just us, back in those days the view on the wold as it is today was also quite different (human rights etc and similar modern post WWII terms didn't exist in the minsd of the ppl back then). Also don't forget Lumumba was killed with American (CIA) support

                      The battle for Bagdad will surely be the mother of all battles, or rather a blood bath. Wilst I am loath to admit it I can foresee 100's on coalition lives being lost and many 1000's of Iraqi's (many civilian).

                      I hope you americans have the stomach for a real fight. its all fine and dandy bombing from 10'000 feet and launching cruise missles from 1000's of miles away. This will be room to room, street to street. For the first time the advantage will be with the defender.

                      Seems to me some of your generals underestimated the strength of the Iraqi resolve. These people fighting you may not be regular soldiers, they may not even support Saddam, what they are doing though is defending THEIR country against the unjust agression hidden under the veil of liberation or deissaramanent. So! where are the Weapons of Mass Destruction?

                      This is going to end in tears & the Tigris will run red with the blood of all concerned (not Bush's he's sitting watching on TV). Is it to late to stop? There MUST be another way......

                        They tried that on Day1, but missed Saddam

                            Wasn't Basra intended to be liberated "a few hours" after the beginning of all this ?

                              Ok..........

                              Oh and when you call dont forget what I said here.

                              I support US & UK but its just there is a lot about this thats not right. My stomach turns everytime I see an Iraqi child in hospital. For christs sake couldn't they have sent in some special forces to just assasinate Sadam, if the president of USA can be assasinated surely we could have got to Saddam!

                              America just wanted to flex its muscles and try out some new weapons.......

                              "Shock & Awe" hmmmmmmmm well were all pretty shocked thats for shaw, and awe in the stupidity of it all.

                                Assassination is illegal

                                plus we would have had to eliminate his sons as well.

                                yes it would be nice if it wasn't illegal... oh well
