The Americans And British Should lose this war they are the ones who are creating a WARCRIME the SO called LIBERATORS should be put in its rightful place.
After reading the interview of General, I felt he is not a hypocrite, whatever he think he expressed withouth ambigous statements. General i appreciate your honesty.
The fact that people continue to state that the war is not going well have no idea what they are talking about.
This war has covered more ground and taken less causality than any war in the history of the world. When has there been a time that over 100,000 soldiers have entered a country traveled 200 miles to a nations capital w/ so few deaths? Plus count the number of tanks, planes, men, blah blah blah and compare to what America has lost. It is not that hard to see the truth but Muslim's are lost cause anyway.
No war of this magnitude will end in a few weeks but it will end soon enough. Americans are a tough bunch and have the best weapons in the history of the world so get over it. Iraq will fall soon enough....
Excellent interview, especially after reading only one sided stories from western media. Saddam knew that he can not fight US in the air, so he broguht them to earth. His several years long preparation has been only on the ground and under-ground. he has hardly fired any missile or flew any plane( the missileshe fired appear only "dummy" which cost him a few hundred dollars which were destroyed by a Million dollar plus Patriot missiles. He is therefore using up most expensive US armoury for his 'dummy' weaponry. The fact that many iraqis dug tube wells inside their homes clearly suggest that Saddam wanted Americans to come down to earth, and they have.He also made too easy for Americans to make deep inroad inside the desert land, and now they are trapped. It seems certain that he is baiting them to circle the city where he would use some very ingenious trick to trap these guys who have only modern weapon but no real war experience. (In most of the wars that US had fought recently, its troops never participated - they were just symbolic - but they used only their aerial power). Hand in hand fight determines who is really stronger,especially in desert. Unlike Americans who rarely had experience in fighting physical war ( their last real experience was only in Vietnam), Iraq had fought 10 year long war with Iran, hand in hand. The pronouncements of Deputy Premier Tariq Aziz and Premier Ramadan were accompanied by confidence. So it appears that Iraqi plan is moving according to design, whereas American plans are faltering. The more vigourous bombing on Baghdad on any day signify that they lost heavily on previous day on the ground.
This is indeed and insoders view to the reality of war and a very wise and perceptive one at that. REDIFF should be commended on this article. Help open the eyes of the world.!
