CNN reporting (I only switch to them occasionally to get my daily laughs) that Demitri Pericos (sp), one of the UN inspectors, is saying this IS NOT A SMOKING GUN. (Idiot alert). He's right actually - it's not a smoking gun - it's a nail in the coffin.

But has been talked about for a couple of weeks or more.

What's been talked about before was Saddam's resignation and exile. This talk of a coup is new -- and for a coup, exile is usually not an option.

The timing may be: We'll "DISCOVER" the weapons and remove them just before the attack. That way our troops will be safer. Wonder how many more will be "located" in the next few days?

Dangerous game. I'm not sure Saddam will wait around for all of them to be discovered.

If he figures (correctly) that he's going down anyway, it's use 'em or lose 'em time.

As seen in this classified photo, Saddam and a key military advisor meet to discuss propaganda strategies to undermine latest discovery by UN inspectors.

Like put a homing device on them! CNN takes a little bit of information and blows it out of proportion about the Saudi's wanting to overthrow Sadaam while finding these warheads is just a small breach!

These warheads were NOT declared in the original declaration by Iraq -- just being reported by the UN!

Which makes Iraq in 2 (two) violations of Resolution of 1441>

That's what I think, too. Prayer time for our soldiers. All bets are off when Saddam is left without options.

Yep. I'll lay odds that this is why Greta was on pins and needles last night...

It's time for prayer for us all...

The Saudi statement may be a total lie, devised to put more pressure on the situation.

IRAQ says these warheads 'are not part of a prohibited program.'

Someone send an email to Sheryl Crow! Maybe she'll make another tee.

Maybe Iraq can "not have enemies".

Iraq has responded with the statement that these casings have no linkage to the banned weapons program.

I don't care. The dogs bark but the caravan passes on. We are going to do what is right.

I love the line from The Two Towers where Theoden, King of Rohan, says to Aragorn... "I will not risk open war."

Aragorn, exiled king of Gondor, says... "Open war is upon you whether you risk it or not."

War has been declared. It could not have been made any clearer than it was on 9/11.

So, let the dogs bark... the caravan will pass on, and freedom will be defended.
