<<You are right. The drums of war are beating loudly.>>

We did some talking on this at the coffee shop today. Midwest place that serves coffee and donuts.

Saddam and the extremists of Islam are patient. They can wait generations while building up. We believe that we've waited too long now, Saddam has had too much time to get ready, ie move WND to terrorists and lay plans.

Some say let the inspections go on another year. They find this and he destroys it. 40 missiles, big deal. What they don't find is still on hand and ready to go.

Lets say the inspectors leave after a year declaring Iraq clean. Saddam gets bigger missiles with nuke tips. He has Israel and Europe in his area of targets. Now he controls 100% of the oil flow from the Mideast. What happens then?
