Would be nice. I think if you pull a few blocks out of the Jenga tower, the whole thing may come tumbling down.

DEBKAfile's Kuwait correspondent reports from sources with the US 3rd Infantry Division on the Kuwait-Iraq border: The surrender of the Iraqi 11th and 51st divisions is under negotiation with US military officers and is expected in the coming hours. The two divisions represent two-thirds of the Iraqi army in the south.

We'll see if Debka knows what the heck they're talking about. They had this up a long time ago.

those are regular army divisions so should be among the first to surrender

Well Debka either guessed correctly or has a good source for this one.

It would make sense of all this hype/war/protesting...I pray for peace.

I think it means those attempts where US forces are attempting to negotiate some Iraqi military commanders to surrender.

Doesn't mean that whole army would be surrendering.
