Touche. War lies to the populace by 'righteous' governance are generally meant to rally the populace when the odds dont look very good. As of right now, we can nuke the entire muslim world in 30 minutes. The odds are still vastly in our favor. Other types of War Lies are told for the enemies sake. Now why would Saddam be comforted with Bush et. al. lieing about his involvement in the Anthrax blackmailings ? Is he expecting a golden parachute ? Is he only going to use the Anthrax 'get out of jail free' card if Bush shows the world the truth about him ? What I find hard to believe is that Saddam potentially has the capability to kill thousands of americans on our home soil right now, and he is not doing it. But according to your theories, these capabilities will be used if Saddam is killed and Iraq is invaded. Why would Saddam get his revenge after his death ?

He already he got his jollies on 9/11, with the most audacious and stunning surprise attack in human history. The deterrent part is just about getting away with it. There's nothing very complicated or mysterious about it.
