17 Iraqi soldiers surrendered

Post by Zamtuk »

It is on CNN right now. Apparently 17 of the Iraqi military surrendered at the Kuwait border. I will try to find a link.

Not really surprising, the regular Iraqi soldier will show little to no opposition.

I heard last week many tried turning themselves over to the British. They were turned back stating "We are not yet at war, we don't know what to do with you."

NORTHERN KUWAIT, March 19 — U.S. warplanes bombed Iraqi artillery just north of Kuwait on Wednesday, softening up the path of U.S. and British troops poised to invade Iraq, NBC News has learned. The bombing came as 17 Iraqi soldiers surrendered at the border. The Pentagon hoped tens of thousands of Iraqi soldiers would follow suit as the clock ticked toward the 8 p.m. ET deadline set by the United States for Saddam Hussein to leave Iraq or face attack.
Story is here.

Instead of surrendering to the US.. err I mean "the coalition" why don't they turn their guns around and point them at Saddam if they want him out so badly? Maybe they are more afraid of the americans than they are of their own government?

lol.. If you were a little Iraqi soldier would you :
a) Feel like you had any chance in hell of staying alive if you fired on the US?
b) Give a rats ase we took Saddam out of power after he antagonized the largest military force on the planet?
c) Decide to "cowboy up" and think that you can take out a military that outnumbers yours 100's to 1

Obviously those Iraqi soldiers have never played an FPS game. Games as early as Wolfenstein 3D taught us that one man can take out an entire army by himself! Even if he runs out of bullets and has to use the hand-chop maneuver!
