One of the definitions of diplomacy I heard recently was how to say

" nice doggie ...while reaching behind
and feeling for a big stick "

Agreed , there is also the carrot dangling there in front of Saddam for exile , it will be there for him to take before armed conflict starts, he could even avoid a tribunal maybe.

I will feel sorry for the Iraqi soldier put in the "perfect storm's" path . This "War" once begun will be over quick and decisively.... I would not want to be in Iraqi uniform when it detonates. Saddam can step down if he chooses and prevent this , but I haven't seen him lament the loss of any of his people yet .

Many Iraqis will surprise the world how quickly they will embrace and adapt very well to the sudden loss of this tyrant , and a new democratic regime . It will seem like springtime to them compared to living under "The Madman".
They are for the most part educated people and wanting to rejoin the world .

I think the outcome will be surprising to everyone , though one has to hate implementing regime changes, this one is for everyone's good on levels yet to be seen , especially for the Iraqi people and ultimately everyone in the region
and the entire world.

The war will be swift and over quickly...the Iraqi people will surprise .
