Saddam has challenged the leaders of America to a duel in an attempt to solve the problems he has made for himself by losing the Gulf War. The President is from Texas, and the Vice-President is from Wyoming. Giving them the mere thought of having an opportunity to practice has brought them great joy. Truly, it made their day.
However, because Saddam does not fight fair, it was the unfortunate duty of “Doc” Holliday to point out that their primary responsibility is the defense of America, and they cannot allow themselves to be drawn into a duel for their own personal enjoyment. Saddam’s comically transparent attempts at deception, along with his continuous lies, prove that that he does not really wish for a fair fight. As much as they were looking forward to the duel, and as much fun as it would be for them, there are only two authorities that may remove them from their office and responsibilities, the American people, and the United States Congress.
Because of Saddam’s continued grievous stupidity, and his acts of murder against the undefended, the unarmed, and the helpless, he has shown many times that he is most un-Arab in his behavior. However, because he has at least attempted to be gracious with his offer of a duel, it must be granted that he is not entirely and completely devoid of the good manners that are an integral and essential part of Arab culture. Even if he does not intend to fight fairly, and with honor, as a true Arab does.
Saddam should be cautioned against any further challenges to a duel, because it forces IC to bring disappointment to the President and Vice-President, and challenges IC’s job security. Causing disappointment to the President and Vice-President is very harmful to IC, and will force him to prematurely stop being gentle and diplomatic with Saddam.
By failing to follow the law, Saddam is bringing justice upon himself.
