Good insight, Ork.

Let me ask a different question now.

Given the international exposure of the war, and cyberspace serving to further enhance and expedite the flow of information, what do you think will happen to the U.S. equity markets when the world is screaming through the UN and elsewhere for "America to stop?" What will likely happen to the credibility of the U.S. Gov if a resolution is brought to the UN floor condemning the US Gov and its "participation" in the killing of 1000s of innocents?

Of course, such a UN resolution would never pass or even be brought to the floor any time soon. Even contemplation of it seems improbable now, but will that change in several months following the live-air documentation of the "slaughter" of 1000s and 1000s of Iraqi civilians?

It should be quite interesting to observe how these and other events unfold.

Scott Ritter may yet be right, although, perhaps, for the wrong reasons.

Unfortunately, I think time is on Saddam's side.

Comments?
