Sox-just how much longer are you going to excuse Saddam?Will you wait until he gets nukes,like North Korea?North Korea when outed about their nuke program by the U.S. responds with threats of war,another madman like Saddam has their finger on the nuclear trigger,Japan is already practicing evacuations just in case.Your anti-war buddy Scott Ritter claims Iraq has no WMD,yet in his argument against U.S. troops being in Iraq,he claims they will be subject to bio,and chem attack.We know Iraq has the weapons,and is unwilling to destroy them,it's just a matter of time before he develops nukes(btw,Iran and N.Korea are working together to develop Iranian nukes),and the time will come when he sells them to terrorists,or launches on his own against Israel(bio/chem/nuke).I'm not going to argue all day about this,you have your view of the world,and I have mine,message boards will change no ones mind.
