Fact file: Iraq's Republican Guard
Members of the RG are better trained, disciplined, equipped and paid than ordinary Iraqi soldiers.
This said, in terms of equipment and tactical ability, Iraq's elite soldiers are no match for even ordinary soldiers in the American and British forces - let alone elite troops such as the US marines.
There are doubts over the degree of loyalty Saddam Hussein can expect from the RG if they are faced with the full might and absolute technological superiority of US-led forces.
The Iraqi military in general is much reduced compared to the forces that were easily defeated by the US-led coalition in 1991 and its equipment is old and decrepit.
Privileges
All RG troops are volunteers rather than conscripts.
Personnel recruited into the guard are given bonuses and subsidised housing.
Alongside the RG, the Special Republican Guard (SRG) is regarded as a highly trained and equipped force - and one whose loyalty the Iraqi leader can count on without question.
The SRG is overseen by Saddam Hussein's son, Qusay.

Scientifically speaking, theories do not become facts. Facts are things that are observed to be true; theories are created to explain why a particular set of facts are true.
Facts are information that you have confirmed and know to be true. Inferences are things you believe to be true and have taken an educated guess on based on the information and facts that you have available at the time.
