As the mighty gas-turbine M1A1 Abrams
battle tanks and Bradley Fighting Vehicles of the US military thundered over
the Kuwait-Iraq border in March 2003, victory over Saddam Hussein was never in

tanks and other armoured vehicles eventually swept into Baghdad, an officer of
the 3rd Infantry Division proudly boasted on Fox News: “Saddam Hussein says he
owns Baghdad. We own Baghdad. We own his palaces, we own downtown.”
