While it's true that the threat of nuclear weapons is normally a strong deterrent, we are fighting a different kind of war against fanatics and who knows if such a threat will impact their decisions in any way.

Saddam is a nut job, he's the type, like Hitler, who will want to take the entire world with him, even his own. So we really have to be prepared to be more steely and determined in our fight than they are.

I know some of our citizens do not have the neccessary resolve and would never have it, even should Saddam's elite forces be kicking their doors in, the same with many of our politicians. They had rather put off today, what will have to be faced tomorrow. We just have to be the grown ups and when neccessary flood D.C. and the media with phone calls telling them to grow a spine. This will be especially neccessary when the body bags begin to be filled with our brave and noble young soldiers and possibly civilians here at home. We have to win this, if it's easy, good, if it's not easy then the tuff need to get going when the going gets tuff.
