In this press Conference Schwarzkopf goes through what had been happening on the ground and offers his own assessment of the Leadership skills of Saddam Hussein. He is , as always, blunt, direct, and to the point. He also shows flashes of his sense of humor as the war begins to wind down with a commanding American victory in the Middle East.
