#1 Smells a bit like disinformation, to sow fear and confusion before the shooting starts. Or: Maybe we are talking to some Iraqi generals, and we've let the cat peek out of the bag to encourage a coup before the shooting starts. That is, some generals may get afraid that Saddam suspects them, and given his Stalin-esque way of thinking, they know they're dead if he does. So they get him before he gets them. We can only hope....

#2 Special forces "buying out" local forces like Afghanistan (only without the heavy briefcases?)

Bring it on!!! War done the common sense way. Are we dropping pre-fab PoW camps?
