I am imagining that Saddam's own generals will stage a coup against him and his sons. In fact, I am predicting this! We will not have to wipe out half of the country in a massive simultaneous bombing!

My worst fear is that a chemical attack will kill millions in the country and we will have to reinstate a rapid draft to replace a quarter of a million soldiers, declare marshal, law and suspend normal democratic activities as a country. I fear rationing as well and shortages. harpgrrl
