Another email from my mysterious friend, the Scarlet Pimpernel:
The prospect of war with Iraq raises some troubling questions:
1) Will the U.S. be going it alone, or will we have allies?
2) Will it be a short, decisive conflict like Operation Desert Storm, or will it turn into another Vietnam?
3) Does Saddam Hussein have chemical or biological weapons? And if so, will he use them against us? Against Israel?
4) If the war goes well and ends quickly, will the occupation/transition period go just as smoothly?
These are just a few of the many questions raised by the spectre of a U.S.-led war against Iraq. If we do go to war with Saddam Hussein, there's one thing, and perhaps one thing only that we can be sure of...
Osama Bin Laden will be Laughing His Ass Off.
Indeed....
