Imminent, effeminate,decafeinate, defecate, I don't care as long as the action is taken before Hussein has enough in place in the USA to cause serious damage. Saudi Arabia should pretty much assume their society is going to be a little more transparent or more than a few of their princes are going to be ventilated. So the royals, pffft I spit on the notion of something royal coming out of sandy ass land, anyway these carpet riding sumbitches need a little reminder of how your world gets rocked when a giant is rudely rousted from his sleep. Problem is, these people are totally nuts and would threaten with blackmail or actually stage a WMD attack in the USA. One or two cities is one thing. 10 or 12 would be hard to recover from. Not to mention the burning stench of 800 million souls from Tripoli to Cairo to Damascus to Riyahd to Baghdad to Tehran to Jalalabad to Islamabad to Katmandu. That's pretty much assuring a miserable life for whoever survives. Except, of course, Charlton Heston. He would have already departed for monkeyland. Come to think of it, wasn't that sandy next to Johnny Taliban in the picture they used to show like ever 2 minutes one of those monkey people? Did they crate his ass off to Roswell New Mexico? What are your thoughts?

"What are your thoughts?"

Well, 'decafeinate', for one. ;^)

I hope when decisive action is taken, sufficient strategic thought has been put to it to have a 'realworld' follow-through plan. This could involve a new pattern of governance in the Gulf region, one most strongly resembling a protectorate, or a satrapy. ;^)

'Fortress America' sure sounds like a good idea, some days, if 'twere possible. :^)

One must always fear UN involvement, now.
