A large group of Iraqi soldiers are moving down a road when they
hear a voice call from behind a sand dune: "One U.S. Marine is better
than ten Iraqi".
The Iraqi commander quickly orders 10 of his best men over the
dune whereupon a gun-battle breaks out and continues for a few minutes,
then silence.
The voice once again calls out: "One U.S. Marine is better than one
hundred Iraqi."
Furious, the Iraqi commander sends his next best 100 troops over
the dune and instantly a huge gun fight commences. After 10 minutes of
battle, again silence.
The voice calls out again: "One U.S. Marine is better than one
thousand Iraqi."
The enraged Iraqi commander musters 1000 fighters and sends them
to the other side of the dune. Rifle fire, machine guns, grenades,
rockets and cannon fire ring out as a terrible battle is fought.... Then
silence.
Eventually one badly wounded Iraqi fighter crawls back over the
dune and with his dying breath tells his commander, Don't send any
more men......it's a trap; there's two of them."
One US Marine
