US troops have been at the Kuwaiti border for some months, it is only natural that Iraqi troops would amass at the other side.

If Iraq could be persuaded to "make the first move" or at least for something to happen that looked that way, then a US attack would be politically more acceptable.

Personally I hope that a covert way is found of removing Saddam, rather than a repeat of last time when Saddam's biggest internal threat - The Republican Guard - were massacred by "us", many of them unarmed and almost all of them connscripts who wanted no part in the war.
