I believe all the European bluster against our impending "war" against Iraq is just a smoke screen to the reality.
That reality says that the Euros are on board.
The Saudis are on board.
The Dems and Pubbies are on board.
The proof of WMDs has been shown to the leaders.
When the time comes, we will all be amazed at the speed and efficiency with which Iraqi opposition will be dispatched.
The plan is to catch the enemy with his pants down.
The battle plan could be called the "Clinton Operation".
There's no way at all that there could be a war coming and the krauts wanting to jump into the fray just for ol' times sake, and to stay in practice.
NO WAY that the limeys could be watching us getting ready to go whup some @$$ and wanting to help with the parades and stuff!
NO WAY, AND I'M SHOCKED, SHOCKED I TELL YOU TO HEAR YOU EVEN SUGGEST SUCH A THING!
No way that Dick Armey and those guys could just be play-acting for Saddam's benefit!
(How about the Frogs? Are they gonna cover the Limey's left flank like last time?)
