   THE EXISTENCE OF FOUR PRE*USLY UNKNOWN REPUBLICAN GOD
   DZVIS;EONS MAY MAKE IT EASIER FOR SADDAM HUSAYN TO RECONSTITUTE
   OTH@ REPUBLICAN GUARD UNITS AND MAINTAIN HIS HOLD ON POWER.
   COMMENT: IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE REPORTS OF THESE DIVISIONS MAY
   ACTUALLY BE REFERRING TO BRIGADES. THE SAUDIS AND SEVERAL OTHER
   ARAB STATES USE THE WORD "FIRQAt' FOR DIVISION TO REFER TO
   BRIGADE-SIZED,ELEMENTS. IF FOUR UNITS HAVE BEEN CREATED, THEY
   WOULD NOT BE NEARLY AS CAPABLE OR MOTIVATED AS OTHER RGFC
   DIVISIONS. THE IRAQI HAVE NOT HAD THE TIME NECESSARY TO BUILD
   EVEN ONE RG'FC DIVISION THAT WOULD BE AS LOYAL OR AS COMBAT-READY
   AS THE EXISTING RGFC DIVISIONS. (DIA)
                     VULNERABILITIES: LOW MORALE WITHIN THE REGULAR
          D LACK OF SUPPORT FROM THE CIVILIAN POPULATION WILL
   CONTINUE TO HAMPER THE RECONSTITUTION OF GROUND FORCES IN
   SOUTHERN IRAQ. LACK OF SUFFICIENT COMMAND AND CONTROL, AND AN
   INSUFFICIENT LOGISTICS BASE IN SOUTHERN IRAQ CONTINUE TO LEAVE
   FORCES VULNERABLE TO MCF AIR ASSETS.
