Saudis kick Iraq's butt? Don't be absurd. They have virtually no military.

Iraq didn't only invade Kuwait, they fought a nine year war against Iran, and would do it again in a second if they thought they could win.

If we didn't have the no fly zones in place, he would have started at least one other war by now.

I'm not sure war is the best option here, but it's certainly not an unreasonable one if we do have good information that Saddam is developing nuclear weapons.
