Every anti-war (translated: anti-USA) activist will be telling us that we can't be trusted not to have faked the whole tape. Once again, they will take Saddam's word over Bush's word or that of anyone in his admnistration.

Nothing will ever be enough. But I'm glad to hear it and I hope this means the end of this game is coming soon.

"Once again, they will take Saddam's word over Bush's word"

Is that amazing or what?

The question is real simple:

• Bush says that Saddam Hussein is in violation of the cease-fire agreement by possessing weapons of mass destruction.

• Saddam Hussein says that he is not, and that he doesn't have any such weapons anymore.

One of these men is the constitutionally elected president of the United States, and the leader of the free world, and the other is a despot and a murderer of his own people who invaded a neighboring country without warning a few years ago.

One of them is lying.

It really shouldn't be all that difficult to figure this out.

Once you do that, then your only argument against war has to be that we have the moral obligation to allow this man to murder a whole bunch more people before we feel that our involvement is justified.

Demonstrable:

1. He had weapons of mass destruction a few years ago, he used them on his own people.

2. He agreed to destroy them under the terms of the cease-fire.

3. He has failed to show a single shred of evidence that substantiates their destruction.

Saddam has weapons of mass destruction.

I guess the anti-war people would rather have the inevitable death of several thousand (or tens, maybe even hundreds of thousands) more innocent people on their collective conscience, than the overthrow of one oppressive, murdering, tin-pot dictator.
