In a forum that used to be a pot of gold for political discussions, it's been 29.5 hours and STILL no thread announcing the fall of Saddam.

No longer.

Well, it's not like it's any big surprise that we kicked some puny little nation's ass. And the "fall" of Saddam was mostly symbolic. Tearing a statue down doesn't exactly mean it's over.

It seems to me, putting up a statue of yourself it pretty much askin' for it...unless you want to be humiliated on the cover of Time magazine or something.

It is pretty interesting what a lousy general Saddam is, tho. He is pretty krappy at war. I think anyone who's played video war games for any length of time could have done a much better job.

I bet Bush is pissed that he didn't use chemical/biological weapons on our troops, tho.

I just got the desire to cover Lark in caramel and nuts and dip him in chocolate and eat him.

And yeah, Bush probably is pissed, in a way.

According to the geek on CNN a bunker buster bomb must directly hit saddam or be within 15 or so feet to kill/mame him. Anything further and a 1 ft concrete wall can save Saddam. Though his ears would be pwned by the sound of a large explosion.

It really is curious that Saddam didn't use his WMDs. Regardless of why he didn't, it certainly doesn't lend much credence to the notion that it was vital to attack right away because we were in danger of him using them on us.

I mean, we started a war with the stated purpose of taking him out, personally, and he still didn't use them.

Very curious.

I'm pretty sure he knew he was going to lose this war anyways, so the smartest thing to do would be to make Bush look like a fool and keep the world opinion on his side. I reckon he's off in hiding somewhere.

So...he's still concerned about world opinion when we're actually trying to kill him and moving into his house. We couldn't do much else to provoke him.

Under what conditions do you think he would actually use WMDs, if he's so worried about what the world thinks of him?

I dunno, maybe he's looking out for the long run. My guess is that he hopes to get people against the US so that maybe they'll leave or something. I don't really know what he's thinking, it's just my best theory.

I'm not sure. Maybe there is that one in a billion chance that he actually disarmed, but I doubt it. There's really no way to tell. He could use them spontaneously to catch the Americans off gaurd, or give them to Iraqi guerrilla agents. Maybe he just wants the US to look bad above all else, and won't use WMD's at all.

Wouldn't he use them on Isreal rather than the USA. Also don't chemical agents have like an expiry date.

TMK: I dunno, maybe he's looking out for the long run.

He's either dead right now, or will be dead/captured/irrelevant very soon.

He doesn't have a long run. (That's what Satan told me anyway.)

I don't really know what he's thinking, it's just my best theory.

Obviously, I dunno either, but I like a theory that makes sense.

Maybe there is that one in a billion chance that he actually disarmed, but I doubt it.

I agree there. I'm pretty damn sure they're eventually going to find some WMDs, but you never know. They really have a hard on for finding them too, and everything seems to be a false positive.

Even that chemical warhead they recently found seemed to only have "trace amounts". So, like, if Saddam broke into your house and smeared it on you, you'd be in big trouble.

And, if he did destroy all his WMDs, that would involved removing chemical agents from the warheads...so, that's exactly what you might expect.

Again, odd.

He could use them spontaneously to catch the Americans off gaurd, or give them to Iraqi guerrilla agents.

Sure, he could, but it's a little late for that to have a decent effect. Gassing the invaders of your nation who are trying to kill you could be considered noble (or at least self-defense), but gassing the police is pretty weak.

Maybe he just wants the US to look bad above all else, and won't use WMD's at all.

Well, I mean, if his goal was to make us look bad by not using WMDs, then we didn't really need to go to war...for that reason, anyway.

Yurika: Wouldn't he use them on Isreal rather than the USA.

For one thing, even France, Germany, Russia, etc. would be against him if he did that.

For another, Bush said the reason for the war was to prevent Saddam from using WMDs against us. Sometimes he'd mention "his neighbors" too, but the point was that we're invading his country because we're actually in danger.

Also don't chemical agents have like an expiry date.

Good question. So, you're thinking that maybe they expired? If that's the case, then he'd already been "disarmed".

Is it wrong when you find real advertisements like this on CNN.com?

Think about that for a second. An expiration date is when the product is no longer safe to use. Are chemical weapons supposed to be safe?

An expiration date is when the product may no longer function properly. Nuclear weapons "expire" after awhile because uranium, being radioactive, decays over time. Plain old chemicals don't suffer the same effects.
