You won't know all about all the new stuff until after hostilities.One "preview" I heard about was the Predator drone armed with Hellfire missles. It can loiter for hours and then strike armor in complete darkness with no danger to U.S. combatants. The Iraqis should have learned on the last go-round is that we OWN the night. We will prefer to "work" at night. We are freakin' deadly at night. Unless the Germans or French sold them any night vision stuff lately, it will be just another "replay" with their "elite" troops trying to surrender to drones and aircraft. -------------------- No Sig

If it helps secure my childs safety and defends our freedoms I am all for it. Believe me, there is no sick desire to kill behind America's firewall. This I am sure of.

Not always Lindi, sometimes driver skill comes into play. For example, look at the picture above, that guy really thinks he can squeeze thru the gap in the trees? -1 for the US I think. -------------------- (_*_)
