Jay, invading Iraq will be great. As you constantly point out, the great opportunities arise in times of stress. Out of Iraq will come a revamped United Nations - the United States of Freedom. There will be Peace In Our Time. There's about $3 trillion in oil in Iraq [at current prices - unless I inadvertently added $1 trillion]. That'll fund a LOT of UN and Iraqi development. It'll keep CB's SUV moving in the manner to which she's become accustomed. The Taleban ran for the hills almost without a fight. They were fervidly committed to Jihad. Saddam's troops are less committed. They'll take the first uniform they are offered, especially with a signing bonus and a pay increase. They'll look so swanky in their brand new UN uniforms. Saddam will be redeployed on some make-work project in Syria or somewhere. Bring it on! Mqurice PS Imagine trying to fight a war when the enemy offers your troops 10x the pay to swap sides. Heck, I'd swap sides myself if I was Saddam.
