(CNSNews.com) - Saddam Hussein Friday announced that all weapons of mass destruction are banned in Iraq. His decree comes on the same day that U.N. weapons inspectors were delivering a progress report on how well Iraq is complying, or not complying, with U.N. orders to get rid of its weapons of mass destruction. According to wire reports, Saddam's decree bans the production and importation of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons, including anything that could be used to make them. "All ministries should implement this decree and take whatever measures are necessary to punish people who do not adhere to it," wire reports quoted Saddam's document as saying. While some U.S. television reporters offered the information with a straight face, others did not.

Well, now that this is over, since Powell is already there can we get permission to bomb North Korea?

Good...when we go in, depose him, and find them, we can execute him under his own law? Thanks Saddam, you ignorant idiot.

Well, then, in the spirit of international cooperation, I think the USA should be magnanimous enough to help Iraq enforce the ban.

Right now.

And every eligible Iraqi citizen voted for Saddam in Iraq's last election and the votes were counted, by hand, in 3 hours.

Only the gullible will believe this.

Therefore the French, Germans, Greens, Democrats, NBC/CBS/ABC/CNN and Barbara Streisand are convinced

Well, that's great! Thank God he did that. I was waiting for a sign from Saddam and I guess this is it

So, because of that I just wanted to announce that I gladly accept the title of all-powerful ruler of the universe. In my first official act as ruler...what?

You mean just because I say something doesn't mean that it isn't true? But, but, I am the ruler! Didn't you hear me? I just declared myself ruler of the universe!
