The wheels have already been put into motion.

It's now over a year since Saddam Hussein's terrorist proxies destroyed the World Trade Center and came within a hair's breadth of destroying the Capitol. Bush announced almost immediately that his policy was to remove Saddam Hussein. Today, he blinked, punting things back to the UN, which will now spend several months in games with Iraq over the weapons inspectors.

When Clinton decided to get rid of Milosevic, it took all of three months to accomplish the mission. What does Saddam have that Milosevic didn't have, that he can survive so much longer, while presenting an infinitely greater threat to the US? (Clue: it starts with "A" and ends with "X").

Since France has come up with a three-week deadline, and Powell will be working with the Security Council on Friday, I don't think this is exactly a delaying tactic.

I know you are convinced that we are being blackmailed by Hussein, but I would remind you of President Bush's speech last night, and these words:

. And we will not allow any terrorist or tyrant to threaten civilization with weapons of mass murder. Now and in the future, Americans will live as free people, not in fear, and never at the mercy of any foreign plot or power.

I believe that the decision has been made to take Saddam out. I also believe that we will withstand whatever threats he has made.
