What really happened and what is the truth of things - what they told us is certainly not half of it and thick layers of balloney added.
But I have a question - wouldnt either side (NATO Or USSR ) choose to nuke the oilfields to smitherenes if it looked likely that teh other side was going to make a succesful conventional take over ?
Dirty bombs,other types of nuclear weapons to make the operations there too difficult?
(I am thinking post TDM wise -before that any of the scenarios mentioned can happen as far as I am concerned )

I remember a news story on the two before the invasion, and one source remarked this way: "How do you differentate between the brothers? Simple: Uday kills for jollies. But when Qusay kills, it's business." And it's no secret that before the invasion, both wanted the other dead. Lots of folks were surprised that the two brothers were found together-and died together.
