That's a bad set of priorities, IMO. > Charlie Much of the saber rattling is simply to present Saddam with a choice of weapon inspectors or invasion..... Our position can be satisfied with either. But if Saddam doesn't believe we would topple him he has no reason to let the inspectors back in. With Clinton Saddam simply called his bluff, waited out the bombing and knew Clinton's hot air wouldn't amount to much....Saddam by now or will very soon realize that Bush is an entirely different leader who actually does what he says. Short of a Saddam suicide wish my money is on the inspectors returning. Soggy
