What if Blix and his inspection team refused to leave Baghdad--would Bush bomb them? I think that would stop the war because were he to bomb with them there, the whole world would declare war on the United States, if not militarily it will morally. You live in a dream world. I would be more concerned that Saddam will try to hold them as hostages. I'm sure that Hussein has this scenario under consideration. Remember the 1991 hostages? I think that the U.N. would be pretty quick to authorize the use of force.

All Bush had to do was present to the region a sufficient military build-up in order to enhance the inspection process. I asked you this before: How many soldiers is that? And how do you know that? You've got secret informants in high places in the Iraqi gov't? RIght inside Saddam's mind? Frankly, you are starting to impress me as that stuff that comes out of the north end of a southbound bull. What if Blix and his inspection team refused to leave Baghdad--would Bush bomb them? I think that would stop the war because were he to bomb with them there, the whole world would declare war on the United States, if not militarily it will morally. The other option is for the pope to take up residence in Baghdad. I don't think he'd bomb the pope. Your silly hallucinations aren't going to happen. Get used to it.
