>>> Let me ask you a question: Let me make the supposition that Saddam does in fact have chemical and biological agents. If, a few years from now, these are unleashed in DC or NYC or SF or London, how are you going to feel about your stance now?<<< Deterrence. The same game that's worked over the past five decades. Remember, if Saddam is to be the big man he thinks he can become, he's gonna have to have some respect somewhere and likely, very likely, won't poison the world. The evidence shows he's only used such weapons defensively and in war. And do recall he didn't use them during the last Gulf War, when he had more of them and easily could have. I think the US is more afraid of his control of oil than it is afraid of his has or has-not biological agents.
