Failed Iraqi military coups of 1991 and 1996 had left the Iraqi opposition in apparent disarray .The Iraqi opposition hopes that with the backing of US combined with renewed political unity will fuel a successful campaign against saddam. But the question that need to be asked: how will this weak and fragmented opposition take on saddam, whose regime well protected behind his army, a powerful republican guard and a strong security force?
