re: 2nd request/SOROS ["If Iraq uses no WMD in this war or in terror attacks during this war, what does that mean in your opinion? If you were the leader of Iraq, would you use them and why or why not? I remain, SOROS "] ...my first reaction is one word: W-E-A-K If the Iraq's fail to use WMD's against American Troops, does it mean they don't have any WMD's ? ...again, one word: NO. ...it means that all those cell phone calls to Iraqi Generals & Regime leaders telling them that - "if THEY did...WE knew where they were" - were heeded. ...it means that precision SHOCK & AWE worked. And I'm sure than when, not if... we do find WMD's in Iraq (SCUDS already qualify there don't they Soros ?)...that you & the HillaryLib crowd will say it's just another Right Wing Conspiracy & that we planted the WMD's. And if we have no further domestic Terrorism Attacks in the USA - what is my opinion ? ...my opinion is that we have had a resounding SUCCESS in rounding up Al Quaeda Operatives around the world and that Homeland Security is working. Can it get better ? - yes. But, it is beyond MORONIC to suggest that if we don't suffer another domestic tragedy; that Saddam is innocent... And for your question of - ["If you were the leader of Iraq, would you use them and why or why not?"] ...Hell NO ! I think the message was rather simple. Use them & die. Use them & there will be no place to hide. Use them & there will be War Crime Trials. No other power in the history of the World has used so much power, with so much restraint, or precision. No other power in the history of the World has rebuilt so many of it's former opponents...Germany, Japan etc. No other power feeds, clothes and lends medical & health aid to so many other people through out the world...in fact; more than all of the other countries of the world combined. And Thank God tonight, that George W. Bush & Tony Blair stood firm on Moral Ground against the tide of World Opinion... PS: HUGE downside volume today in Goldstocks...Look at the leaders: Institutional fav' NEM - 7 Million+ shares to the DOWNSIDE...shattering the 200 dma. The POG levered names like DROOY just decimated from the tops ...DROOY at $2.33 now needs a double+ to return to former 52 week highs of $5.88, AEM @ $11.53 needs 50%+ to return to $17.90, MDG @ $10.55 nearly needs a double to return to $20.88; unhedged, levered fav's like HMY @ $11.49, down from $19, GFI @ $$9.65 needs nearly a double to $17.15, RGLD @ $13.08 needs over a double to return to $28.80...and the silver stocks like HL @ $2.86 needs a near double to return to $5.90, HL @ $2.86 needs a double+ to $5.90...etc MeThinks that it's now time for some of the Gold-Hypester MegaBulls to find a nice, deep, dark, cavernous VOLCANO in which to hide... NOT A PRETTY REALITY SINCE THE MAY/JUNE 2002 INITIAL TOP - nearly a year in dead/down money...and most goldstocks now need a 50% to 100% move to return to former highs. Bullion now down nearly $70 from the recent high. Reality's a bitch sometimes... - just ask Saddam. ...watch out for those Bunker-Buster's now GoldBulls ~
