| The US and British forces are 56 miles from Baghdad, advancing towards the capital city through Najaf and Samaveh, said sources close to Iraqi tribal opposition on Tuesday. The sources told IRNA that coalition forces would reach Baghdad on Wednesday morning if they do not face any difficulty. They say that concurrently a front would likely be open to Baghdad from the north, and that through Sulaimaniya. In that case Baghdad would face bad days, they added. The sources say war in Baghdad would be tough with heavy casualties and damages. Looks like the Medes and Persians are seeing the military situation more clearly than the Guardian or the NY Times... |
