There's that phony "Arab street" nonsense again. The only thing the "Arab street" understands is cowardice or violence. We're going to take down Hussein and scare the hell out of Assad, and Sultan, and Mubarak, and the Mullahs of Iran. They'll KNOW they could be next. /snip/
You need to read the news more closely. The Mullahs' power is crumbling internally. The moderate Khatami will, within five years, consolidate power in Iran, and bring the country back into the 20th century. There are too many Western-educated Iranian young people who are sick and tired of wearing burquas and having their satellite dishes confiscated. Nobody gives a damn about Iraq, and the Arab states will bid good riddance to Hussein when he's carried out horizontally.
Well said, Spurmeister. WELL SAID!!
PS: I'm finding our co-correspondent, RW2, a bit of a BOUNDER. Aren't you??
For all that, Good Shot, Old Boy. GOOD SHOT!!
