BS. Saddam knows virtually nothing about command or leadership when it comes to war. His troops are poorly led, poorly trained, and technologically outmatched and that is an understatement. Even if the Iraqi military wanted to stand and fight (which the bulk of them will not) they do not have the capability to fight for the reasons named above.
The understimation of your enemy is 99% of all defeats. Remember Custard? Superior firepower (technology) does not guarentee victory. The principles of war must be followed. America is behind in the major catagories. Brute force does not win wars. Intelligence and strategy are the key. I do not doubt that we can win, I only doubt that it will be quick and effortless.
