Why? Saddam went to war, didn't he? The Iraqi Army was obviously positioned to fight and those divisions that went head on against the 3ID did fight. Basra held out for a long time and before the Americans reached Baghdad, with the sandstorm pause, 3-7Cav being surrounded, things were not as easy as you might have thought.
