>>>QUESTION #1: What did Saddam do that threatened anybody during the entire decade of the '90s?

LAZARUS: It refused to comply with UN resolutions that it had agreed to to end the Gulf War.<<<

You didn't answer the question. The question was: What did Saddam do that threatened anybody during the entire decade of the '90s?

>>>QUESTON #2: What did Saddam do post 9/11 that threatened anybody?

LAZARUS: It refused to comply with UN resolutions that it had agreed to to end the Gulf War.<<<

You didn't answer the question. The question was: What did Saddam post 9/11 that threatened anybody.

>>>QUESTION #3: How'd this whole current crisis, the military build-up and threats of war and all, happen?

LAZARUS: Iraq continued to refuse to comply with UN resolutions that it had agreed to to end the Gulf War.<<<

You mean it wasn't politically popular for Bush to beat the war drums?

>>>QUESTION #4: Was the Iraq issue needed for political purposes during the last US congressional election cycle?

LAZARUS: No.<<<

What was the prominent issue championed by the Republicans during the last congressional elections? It certainly wasn't the economy, was it? Was it North Korea? Was it loss of civil liberties? Was it unemployment? Was it bankruptcies? Was it health care? What was it? Sorry, pal. It was Iraq.

>>>QUESTION #5: What major incident provoked any of this?

LAZARUS: 9/11.<<<

Please do tell what did Iraq or its government have to do with 9/11.
