who's snickering. It is fairly stupid of you to think that thousands of Muslims are going to show up from elsewhere and start fighting.

IYO, what has changed since the last time we fought them/ Are they not the same army that gave up in the thousands?

I will tell you the difference..NOW, our weapons systems are even better. Have you heard some of the taliban soldiers talk about our bunker busters hitting in Afghanistan? I had the same impression as when the Iraq soldiers were talking about trying to get away from the B-52s coming in Desert Storm.. shear fear.

And you think an AK-47 is going to stand against this?

Does Saddam have enough cannisters of dangerous stuff right now to turn Baghdad into a biological wasteland?

IMO, yes he does. All the more reason to take him out NOW, before he has the means to turn more than just Baghdad into a biological wasteland.

No matter the desire to join in the battle it is simply impossible. That is why your hypothetical on the subject was treated as a joke. You obviously haven't been there.

If Saddam wants to gas (or biologize) Baghdad - let him. This would not be new behavior from him. I don't think we will be going into Baghdad right away unless the people invite us.
