Grimsley, commander of the division's First Brigade, whose troops led the assault on the airport, about 10 miles from the heart of Baghdad. "It's like spooky weird." His forces had faced only light resistance at dusk and then later virtually no resistance at all.
Colonel Grimsley and other officers speculated that the Iraqi soldiers had deserted or had died after more than two weeks of aerial bombardment, including intense strikes on the airport itself in the last 48 hours. Others were at a loss. "I'm flabbergasted," said Capt. Michael J. MacKinnon, a staff officer with the brigade's tactical command post.
In at least one case it created an acute edginess. "They're there," Sgt. Maj. Gary J. Coker, an engineer, said as he arrived Thursday night, gesturing into the blackness. "They're out there right now."

I wonder how did you judge that War will end in two weeks or less ... this is not afghanistan , this is iraq ... and remember Iraqies make their weapons by their own , so they can make more weapons in order to face the allies forces .
Baghdad is the city that cannot be entered this easy , if would take very long time to enter Baghdad .

I Have something to tell , If the war didn't end in two weeks , allies forves might end up loosing forves because of the heat and sand there , Our area is a very hot one ... Your troops might not bear it.
Yeah we killed them all on the run into Baghdad.Originally posted by BoulderHead
I think the lack of effective opposition to the advancement of the invading army
I have pictures denys this ... every viachle tried to enter Baghdad is destroyed , want to see them ? try this link but the language is arabic www.aljazeera.netWe've been driving in and out of Baghdad for the last 24 hours at will.
I didn't say so .. But our weather is badly hot , White-skined soldiers might see it unbearable , but others might accept it .Zargawee, the Middle-East doesn't have a monopoly on desert and hot weather. Have you ever been to Phoenix, Arizona in the summer? America has plenty of sand and sunshine. Come to California and find out. Death Valley or Malibu, take you pick.
Wait , and the days will tell you ...I actually thought taking Bagdad might prove difficult, but from what I've seen it may fall rather easily.

Wow, could you be any more RACIST? Ever hear of sunblock? There is no phsyiological difference between the races that makes one any more or less suited to desert warfare.I didn't say so .. But our weather is badly hot , White-skined soldiers might see it unbearable , but others might accept it .
Lol, take a closer look at that pic. Not only can you NOT positively ID the burning object, but you CAN positively ID the two *INTACT* APC's on the road. Looks like they are not destroyed. I can't believe you are so naive as to believe Iraq's propaganda even though their own pictures contradict it.I have pictures denys this ... every viachle tried to enter Baghdad is destroyed

Not very time ago , Russian troops tried to enter the Chechen capital , they succeeded in entering it ...
But they lost more than 2000 soldiers in action
Remember that Russia didn't suffer friendly fire while entering there ..
Entering Baghdad won't be a picnic !
The US. Who supports Iraq now? Russia. So it evens out. The point is we rolled over Afghanistan like a training exercise. This isn't the quagmire you want it to be.Originally posted by Zargawee
Who supported Afghanistan at that time ?
