Interesting. According to the below opinion, Saddam just doesn't have the international terrorist connections to pull off counter reprisals should Bush invade. Sorta makes one wonder why the US has this big military buildup at Iraq's doorstep! Domestic politics maybe?

>>>In the event of war in Iraq, world leaders are assessing the possibility of terrorist reprisals in the region and elsewhere. Fortunately, given Saddam Hussein's historical estrangement from militant Islam and the stepped-up security measures in the US, Canada and Europe, the odds of a terror strike in those areas seem low. A weak link, however, might be found in Asia.<<<
