Hawk, you do consistently make good sense [which only means that you agree with me - others no disagree].

If people don't like Saddam, they are really going to dislike it when Uday takes over. Saddam is going to seem like a benign pussy cat after Uday gets his malevolent mind on the levers of power.

Getting rid of Saddam would NOT be a good idea if it meant Uday took over instead.

The whole situation is quite fascinating really and great Shakespearian tragedy material. There are George I and George II [a bit like the English Kings - George VI they got to, or thereabouts] and on the other side Saddam and sons, both running political dynasties. Saddam killed his daughters' husbands - and a lot more besides. Traditionally, at the end of the play, there are a lot of dead people and some soliloquies or raving King Lear [so I've heard anyway - not being any fan of boring old Shakespeare].
