More for the Meat Grinder outside Baghdad
4:38 EST The Iraqi military has brought in reinforcements to bolster Republican Guard Al Medina Division units that have been battered by days of air strikes, artillery attacks and assaults from tank-busting Apache helicopters. Reinforcements reportedly include a few Republican Guard divisions and elite troops backed by heavy armor. (You keep sending them and we'll keep chewing them!) FOLLOWUP, from MSNBC: At the Pentagon, NBCâs Jim Miklaszewski reported that U.S. intelligence indicated a full armored brigade from the Adnan division of the Republican Guard had been destroyed as it made its way from Tikrit, north of Baghdad, to defensive positions south of the capital.
