CBS must have had a rookie editor on the news desk to let that nonsense through. The minute Iraq's army moves outside their borders again we flatten it into very tiny little pieces. We know that, Saddam knows that, everyone in the Mideast knows that except the Oxford toffs who sit in Janes and pretend they are playing with real weapons and armies in their fantasies.

I wouldn't lose much sleep over it. This is what foreign policy analysts do instead of having productive employment.

O/T Max, I read the plan that was picked up by some London newspaper. I don't read too much into it, as I recall that the US Joint Chiefs of Staff argued for Kennedy to drop Nukes on Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis.

The job of the military is to present options to the leaders, and to update them as the situations change.

I see the release of this plan as some kind of political sabatage being done by some in the opposition parties.

It's not that I don't take this stuff seriously, it's just that I try to look at things from all angles and determine the likelihood of such an event considering the political and economic reprecussions that would manifest in light of such an event.
