No, not necessarily. It is not unreasonable to suppose that Saddam might have invested some money and time in a biowar deterrent planted in the United States. Were that so, however, we would have found out about it through defectors some time ago, and you would not have seen Bush taking the political risk to ramp up for war only to have to go through a humiliating climbdown. Or, Bush might have figured that whatever the risk, 'tis better to act now than later when the odds might be longer.
What all this tells me is that even if Saddam invested time and money in that deterrent, it has not worked.

Maybe he'll just get a new screen name and claim that Iran is and always has been the shadowy global anthrax terror master. (Which will actually, maybe sans anthrax specifically, be much closer to the truth than his current nutty tunnel vision regarding Iraq. Not that Iraq isn't a player, but they don't come close to Iran, which has even cooperated closely with Sunni terrorists. As to Syria, the pencil-necked Assad whelp may be Iraq's beatch, but he is pimped out by Iran, IMHO.)
