BRIAN BURRIDGE: No not that different, but I mean John pointed out this was a well-fought campaign, intelligently fought and I'd agree with that, of course, a little bit of a difference perhaps over how we see the future for Iraq in these circumstances but certainly for a military campaign mercifully short and, yes...
BRIAN BURRIDGE: Yes I mean it was a spectacular piece of armoured manoeuvre, that division had been in contact with the enemy on and off for 21 days and by the time that they reached Baghdad which is absolutely outstanding and their move into Baghdad was a spectacular piece of manoeuvre.
BRIAN BURRIDGE: I'm not aware of the source of that report, I mean I do know it's harvest time and I do know that in the past the regime bought the harvest but I couldn't validate whether that is the case.

Air Marshal Burridge: He was designated the joint commander and he ran his headquarters at Northwood in the traditional way in that not only was he charged with being the joint commander for Operation Telic but also for the UK's operations elsewhere in the world which were going on in parallel.
Air Marshal Burridge: The major problem for the civilian population in southern Iraq was in 1991, the fact that they rose up with the expectation of coalition support which was not there and they suffered the consequences in a very bad way.
Air Marshal Burridge: Given that much of what was being seen on television and being written in newspapers was based on the testimony of embedded journalists, then the description of individual events should be pretty accurate, with one major proviso and that is the loose use of language.

BRIAN BURRIDGE: To me this is where the rubber meets the road and we deal with here with the world as it is and not as we might want it to be, and I guess what I mean by that is that we're realists.
BRIAN BURRIDGE: I'm very much hoping that right now Saddam's looking for his passport, he hasn't used it very much since 1968, but that's the option, and that's the option he ought to take and if he doesn't then, yeah, we will be at war.
BRIAN BURRIDGE: I think the leader of any nation who's just, rather ineptly, taken a nation to war in the way that Saddam has, will find the opening rounds, whatever they are, as being particularly difficult and the sort of thing that will cause him to miss a beat or two.

 British forces destroy Iraqi tanks breaking out of besieged Basra
Air Marshal Brian Burridge, the commander of British forces in the Gulf, said the tanks were attacked Wednesday evening after the column left Basra and headed southwest towards British forces occupying positions in the Fao peninsula.
Burridge said the column's movement did not appear to be part of a coordinated counter-attack by Iraqi troops in Basra, the country's second city and a key port with 1.2 million inhabitants.
Burridge said the situation in mainly Shiite Basra remained "ambiguous" but it appeared that some civilians had turned on Saddam's ruling Baath party.

 Online NewsHour Update: British Attack Column of Iraqi Tanks Near Basra -- March 27, 2003
U.K. forces in Basra have come "up against stiff opposition from a mixture of regime paramilitaries and the remnants of the Iraqi Army's 51st Division, who we believe have been coerced by the regime to reoccupy their equipment," Air Marshall Brian Burridge, the top British commander in the Gulf, said on Thursday.
Group spokesman Captain Al Lockwood described the confrontation as "a very quick, short, sharp engagement," adding that the armored vehicles "were all destroyed" as the convoy attempted to move southeast toward the Faw Peninsula.
Burridge said coalition forces would continue to target specific areas of the city held by the regime paramilitaries and the command element of the Ba'ath party, which had started to "fire mortars and artillery at their own people."

In his first interview since his appointment as head of the 45,000 British troops waiting to go to war, he also disclosed that his biggest fear was that Saddam would use chemical weapons against his own people to slow the invasion.
Air Marshal Burridge acknowledged that the Iraqi leader was “a dangerous bastard” and there was a possibility that he had a surprise up his sleeve.
However, there was no one in the Baghdad regime who had the courage to tell Saddam that he was a “pariah” and he appeared to be preparing for war even though the coalition forces were now not just “over the horizon but over the fence”.
