Amos penned:
"The bombardment of Baghdad has so far been highly restrained, a softening of the enemy mind, with less than 100 missiles sent in, compared to the several thousand they were bragging about as the initial bombardment planned. The possible reasons for this change are 2, that I can see: one is to unsettle enemy forces by gaining unpredictability. The other -- far more hopeful -- is that the possibility of accomplishing the mission of the campaign without massive force might be in view. They are trying hard to keep civilian harm to a minimum within the constraints of their military goal."

There was another explanation offered by the talking heads today. There supposedly are negotiations going on now between the coalition forces and some of Saddams elite guard of the Republican Army. While there is talk, there is room to wait.   

Time will tell if this be true or no.
