Actually I think that George & Tony's methodically slow build-up to attack can be compared to "Chinese water torture" for old Sadaam. He's played the appeasers like a fidel, however he realizes that a couple of poisonous snakes are loose in his underground bungalow.

Always look forward to your posts Ivan and we have a mini Union Jack on our state flag. Bless the Queen, bless Tony Blair, bless Jack Straw and bless Great Britain.

I totally agree with you re our long-term "Chinese water torture" of Saddam. A peaceful end to his regime was always the goal. If it takes sending 200,000 plus troops to the gulf to accomplish it, FINE.
