Azazel, We had peace demonstrations last weekend by thousands of people who contend that Saddam has no WoMD and is not a threat to world peace. While they demonstrated, they ran a commercial copying the famous 1964 Johnson attack add showing a little girl picking the petals off a flower and counting down as she does. As she reaches 0, a nuke explodes.
So what does this say about the peace demonstrators true beliefs concerning Saddam? They believe he has nukes and will use them if we go after him.
Actually, Bill Clinton said as much not that long ago. He said that Saddam is not a threat to use his WoMD unless we attack.
But I agree, Azazel, you are in Saddam's bullseye with whatever WoMD he does have.

I'm reading a book about the British Empire and was surprised to find that the British forces in the 16th, 17th and 18th century actually had rules for dividing up the loot from captured cities and ships. It was called "prize money". All the troops in a successful battle got a cut with the lion's share going to the officers and some kicked back to the Government. The navy was particularly lucrative, as was service in colonial armies. In some cases fabulous wealth was distributed. After capturing a Spanish gold ship, officers could retire on the proceeds to a country estate.
Maybe there would be more enthusiasm for this war if they brought back that system.......
"Prize money" was the secret to both Roman and Moslem expansion.

Jeez, take off the ideological blinders and think about it, would you? It says that they believe that Bush is a madman, and will use nukes. Bush himself has said nukes are an option -- the first major politician to do so, I believe, since Goldwater, at whom the original daisy ad was aimed. Sorry to wield Occam's razor, but you really need a shave.

I'm sorry Rufus, I but was there in '64. I know what was intended by the ad. It worked. The clear import was that Vietnam would escallate into a nuclear war with Russia, Vietnam's ally.
Ditto Iraq - since the whole point is Iraq's WoMD. Add to that, Clinton's statement that Saddam would likely use WoMD if we attacked.
