Something to consider when examining Saddam Hussein:

His values are not your values. He has repeatedly demonstrated that he is willing to sacrifice tens to hundreds of thousands of his own people to achieve his ends. He has used chemical weapons, against Iran, and against his own populace. He has possibly more chemical and biological weapons hidden away now than when the Gulf War started. He was willing to engage in direct battle with the United States of America at a time when our control over the United Nations was stronger than it is now.

To Saddam Hussein, whether or not to spread anthrax across Kuwait and Saudi Arabia is not a question of ethics, but of probable response. Same as whether or not to just threaten to spread anthrax across Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.

Don't think just in terms of whether or not we would win a direct battle. There are many ways to fight. And don't think in terms of "he's not that crazy." He is that crazy.
