Iraq: The Real Story-How to save face if there is no war.

Wall St Journal ^ | 10-02-02 | CHRISTOPHER BUCKLEY

[SJackson]

In the event that the administration decides not to proceed with war against Iraq, the challenge will be to save face while executing an about-face.

Mr. Buckley is the author of "No Way To Treat A First Lady," published this week by Random House.

LOL! Great laughs which somehow underline the truth: this really is serious business.

Glad to know that Buckley has a new book coming out.

If Bush decides the threat Saddam spelled out in the letter to Daschle is impossible to counter, he retains the option of playing the "tough guy" on the world stage, ramming meaningless weapons inspections through the UN, while Saddam can dance around, then play hapless Arab "victim" and submit to said meaningless weapons inspections. Bush can declare victory, and Saddam can go back to watching his 9/11 pièce de résistance on endless loop, to the accompaniment of a Cuban stogie, a shot of Johnny Walker Black, and a blowjob. Everybody will be happy, just like in '91.
