The Mujahadeen are still kicking the Russians asses Chechnya. And with what? God and an AK47.
The point is, it took us a week to do what the Russians couldnt do in 10 years. Nobody is a threat to us. Let alone Iraq. The only thing Saddam is a threat to are the Kurds and Kuwait.

Really? Remember that last winter we had a good portion of the Mujahadeen on our side against the Taliban. We control 15-20% of Afghanistan tops. If the Mujahadeen decide to fight us - and the verdict is by no means in yet, as it's a big fucking country, and there are dozens of factions - our veneer of control will start showing cracks.
Not necessarily saying you are wrong, but I do think you are very much overstating the case here.
