Hehe it sure is interesting to watch this unfold. The Iraqi "minisry of information' uses the media to talk about all the civilian casualties, while supposily sending secret orders to their troops. The American breifings spread their own FUD about how the Iraqis don't have a chance. They also spread disinformation to the Iraqis.

Of course this all makes sense, Saddam probably gets most of his recon from CNN, BBC, ect
