Well, I imagine Saddam is probably working on a speech on those lines. Iraq's situation is far closer to that of the UK in 1940 than is that of the USA or the UK.

By that I don't mean anything nice about Saddam at all, (and it'd be great if somone in his entourage sneaked up behind him and shot him) but merely that he is at the head of a small and relatively weak country anticipating an attack from an overwhelmingly more powerful opponent.

The idea of the USA or the UK as the gallant undewrdog in the situation, 1940s Battle of Britain style, is just absurd.
