"Saddam Hussein refused to comply with seventeen Security Council resolutions over twelve years. Iraq is ruled by an evil and cruel military dictatorship. It is a regime which tolerates no dissent and no protest. It is a regime which has engaged in territorial aggression and genocide against its own people." - Bertie Ahern read full story / add a comment

Speaking on the Sean Hannity Show on ABC radio today Congressman Pete King said that Bush had shown terrific leadership, had stood up to the French and had shown that the US will not be bound by the endless process of the UN. King said that Bush was committed to winning the war with a minimum loss of AMERICAN life. The Congressman said that anti-war critics, Susan Sarandon and the French were trying to undermine America. He said Bush will achieve a solid victory with a minimum of AMERICAN casualties. King is a close friend of Gerry Adams and has played a key role in assimilating Sinn Fein into the Anglo-American power structure. read full story / add a comment

By any conventional military measure Saddam Hussein is a dwarf and the Iraqi armed forces are much weaker than they were on the eve of “The Mother of All Battles”. Saddam probably has a considerable chemical and biological weapons program, but, in the absence of a powerful conventional force, it is more or less all he has and is best suited for deterrence. As for nuclear weapons, he does not have them yet. Should he acquire them, then the American arsenal that, at the height of the Cold War, succeeded in deterring 2,300 Soviet delivery vehicles with perhaps 10,000 warheads (plus another 10,000 in reserve) should be more than sufficient to deter Saddam as well. In the mind of countless people around the world, including many Americans, all of this raises the question why the US appears determined to make war against Saddam at this time. read full story / add a comment |
