Subject: RE: BS: Is Saddam dead yet?
Bobert:

The baby eaters are indeed a scary bunch. We're told 75% of Americans are in favor of the war. But in Iraq, Saddam must have a similar number of supporters...

Little Hawk: The loyalty to "father" is an active part of both of the families waging this great war on humanity. Revenging one's father is not a noble cause. That is a Freudian interpretation which is nevertheless, incorrect. However, revenge is a very accepted part of many primitive societies. A man who says, "I'm not sure my father was right," will bring much more to humanity than one who says, "My father was right, I must finish the job."   

troll: Let me first say that I thought your set on the Azalea stage last weekend at Willfest was delightfully entertaining. You have such charm and charisma on stage.

However, I see reality very differently than you do on the matter of
Iraq. Twelve years of sanctions on the Iraqi people, twelve years of weakening the Iraqi army, many, many inspections, and the war we are waging still has less than a dozen casualties. That fact says something very differnt to me about Saddam.
