Interesting guy, this Gordon Thomas. Anybody know anything about him apart from what he has on his site?

Whats all this talk about Saddam being defenseless and we should just continue to contain him? If he has the capabilities to perform half of what this article reports we have utterly failed to disarm and contain him.

This would be quite scary if he managed to impact Kuwait's fields again as well as his own, not to speak of the risks to our ground forces.

I really hate to pay high prices for my gas guzzler, and I really hate long lines. So perhaps we should just keep praying Saddam will die in his sleep and be replaced by someone who I am sure he has groomed to be quite different than him.

Of course we can keep the Saudi's happy as well, since with Saddam intact and "contained" they dont have to worry about #2 pumping too much oil and making life for OPEC any more difficult.
