Ritter says the talk about a possible Israeli retaliation with non-conventional weapons was very dangerous, and the use of such weapons could lead to Israel’s destruction. “There is no better way to ensure Israel’s destruction than its use of nuclear weapons,” said Ritter.

“The moment Israel uses its nuclear card, Arab countries will not stop until they get the Bomb and drop it on Israel. If you think a nuclear bomb on Baghdad will prevent Iran from dropping a nuclear bomb on Tel Aviv, you’d better think again.”

"The moment Israel uses its nuclear card, Arab countries will not stop until they get the Bomb and drop it on Israel."--actually, that sounds a lot like what they're doing RIGHT NOW.

“There is no better way to ensure Israel’s destruction than its use of nuclear weapons,” said Ritter.

Scott has it backwards. Faced with immediate destruction, Israel would fire all its weapons. This would be done by the last Israeli soldier left standing.

Isn't it past time this awful bloody traitor -- who surely competes with Madam Half-a-Brian Jim Brady and Mr Polly Klass to hold the all-time world stretch-the-15-minutes record -- was put against the Eddy Slovak Memorial Wall?

Until we have proof that Saddam is threatening US national security, there should be no talk of war.”

What's he waiting for? A bomb to drop on his head or something?

Sometimes you have to give the devil his due. Ritter is right that the use of a nuclear device by the Israelis as an OFFENSIVE weapon would come back to haunt them. Of course they don't need Ritter to tell them this. They WILL use many nuclear devices if their very survival is at stake. The Arabs know this. Deterrence works!

"If Israel ues nuclear weapons it will be destroyed"

Not if Israel hits the right targets.

I'd rather focus on the islamic fanatics in this country then the islamic fanatics in other countries.

The enemy is here. I know I'm in the minority when I say this, but I really could care less about Saddam Hussein. I just don't see the point of sending 250,000 of our boys (many of them my friends and family) to that God foresaken part of the world, when the enemy is down the street.

Muslims in Iraq can't hurt us; Muslims in the US do

The TRAITOR ritter forgets who the protector of Israel is! Jehovah God neither sleeps or slumbers, there is a spy in the sky and he is Jewish! He would do well to keep his trap shut and mind his own business and quit trashing the most populous President in recent memory. This saddam kiss up needs to be permanently deported to iraq and silence his treasonous drivel once and for all. The danger saddam poses speaks for itself; what he does on his own is bad enough but for him to be let off his leash and become a expanded major supplier of WMD to the remaining rogue arab states proves once and for all the Traitor ritter and his latest remarks make him a complete and total idiot; brain dead with its stem rotted off!
