If Saddam has a nuclear weapon he joins a lot of other countries that do and will never use them. Any nation which does is committing national suicide. Saddam may be crazy, but he is not that stupid. Saddam is interested in continuing to be a nuisance in his own backyard and surrounding region.

Not necessarily, Keith. When he lit those oil fields many scientists thought it would create a nuclear winter that could destroy all the crops of the earth. Saddam knew this and ordered it done anyway after he lost the war. As far as he knew this would destroy himself and his people, but by george he would take some Jews and Americans with him.

Thanks be to the Americans who figured out how to cap them.

No one in North Korea or Iran has shown such insanity and willingness to commit suicide to get revenge. The fact that he did this, shows he is insane and suicidal and much more dangerous than any other world leader. This tells us that if he gets a nuclear weapon that he will use it and he must be stopped at all costs.

Speaking of tyrannies and injustices what is this I hear that the people of Canada cannot have a satellite dish??? Is the government trying to keep the people from learning what is going on in the world? I hear of a number of Canadian rebels calling Fox News now and then saying the only way they can listen to this and other stations is to break the law. If Canadians can only get stations that criticize the United States that would explain why support for the states is on the decline.

"We all declare for liberty; but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing. With some the word liberty may mean for each man to do as he pleases with himself, and the product of his labor; while with others, the same word many mean for some men to do as they please with other men, and the product of other men's labor. Here are two, not only different, but incompatible things, called by the same name - liberty. And it follows that each of the things is, by the respective parties, called by two different and incompatible names - liberty and tyranny." Abraham Lincoln -- April 18, 1864 - Address at Sanitary Fair, Baltimore, Maryland
