So attack helicopters aren't "air support" eh?  This (in)famous
vid is an Apache lighting up some insurgents.  I'd suggest viewing it
before passing judgment on the efficiency of a modern attack helicopter in
dealing with ground targets.  Saddam was well equipped with the best that
mother Russia and the French had to offer.

Plus, you're making assertions about the military preparedness of a group
you were denying even existed very recently. This is most curious...

BTW, who precisely do you think would come to "help" the
terrorists if Saddam wanted to clean them up?  In a post 9/11 world that
wouldn't make you very popular.
