#1 All the more reason to skip the Gulf War I overkill and hit Saddam with the division-sized attack he cannot stop. 2/3 of that force is already on the ground. With additional equipment in storage in Kuwait, we could roll with 3 Armored Brigades in 48 hours. With the help of the 18th Airplane Gang [in-house term for paratroopers] and the Marine brigade we have floating in the Indian Ocean, we could own southern Iraq in 4 days.

BTW, Chem and Bio weapons require fairly massive delivery mechanisms [e.g. battalions of BM-21 rocket launchers]. They would be wiped out first.
