United States very big. Iraq very small.If Hussein has nothing to hide, why is he hiding it? It is my understanding he has not cooperated with UN weapons inspectors; however, admittedly, I know just enough to be dangerous.
Now, on the other hand... this could be nothing but a bluff and an idle threat, to coerce Hussein into cooperating with said weapons inspectors. Because if it were me, and I were going to sucker-punch the other guy, I sure wouldn't let it out into the international news. But if I just wanted to rattle his cage... well, that's another story. I think in teenage circles they call it Trash Talk. It's an intimidation tactic.
Y'all know I am one of those dangerous conservative-leaning people, and that I generally don't join in the President-bashing games - mostly because I believe making fun of people when it isn't in good humor makes bad medicine and negative energy. However, I do agree that I am against a military action against Hussein on the mere grounds that he's an asshole.
