@Jack: "How can they move heavy artillery and other weapons into Iraq when they can be attacked from the air?"
You don't believe the US propaganda saying that immense amount of money were been given to the Iraqi soldiers to equip and train them properly, do you? It is the same like all kind of European "subventions" -the money arrive in the pockets of the politicians and the few smart enough to figure the weakness of the system (having the US involved and knowing but not carrying as long as local politicians go their way the US way, this is form of subtle bribe if we can call it so). Same happened in Iraq, now that the troops are under real war conditions in reality they are unequipped, untrained and flat broke.
