"I believe that he
[Hussein] believed that one of the keys to his success was drawing us into
an urban fight, slowing us down thereof while maintaining control of the
population. We were able to wrest the control of the population from
him and were able to win the urban fight very early."
- Lieutenant General William Wallace
"Qusay Hussein ordered three Republican Guard
divisions to maneuver into position to oppose the U.S. advance to Baghdad.
But the divisions were essentially destroyed by airstrikes when they were
still about 30 miles south of the capital. This affected the morale of
the troops. The Iraqi will to fight was broken outside Baghdad."
- Iraqi General Staff Colonel Ghassan
Special - 'Lest We
Forget'
