Ake,

The 200,000 figure I stated is my estimate on the number of people Saddam did not have a chance to kill because we, the big bad US of A, gave him the boot. It cannot be an actual number because he was not able to continue his violence. We saw to that. The peice of shit is gone. We deserve thanks. If it does not come now, it will come from future historian.

About Scottish politics, I know nothing. That is why I have posted precisely nothing on that subject.
