    I admit that unlike some TV pundits I never seriously considered that
    Iraq's military would provide any real or sustained opposition. Check on
    the monster, putting out notice, blame factor, oil, and yes to your last
    point too. It's great to have such agreement!!!

    We really kicked their ass, huh? And TV talking head shows are exciting
    again. I saw Perle on Nightline and in minutes he threatened every
    country in the Middle East (save Israel). His Mercy showed in his sober
    willingness to give Saudi Arabia 'some time' (presumably to get their
    sh*t together).

    And here's the Syrian President falling all over himself apologizing and
    wondering w.t.f. he did to make us wanna attack his country once we
    finished off Iraq.

    Now here's some S.A. dude doing handstands and backflips to show his
    unending friendship. Dance, dance for our amusement!!!

    Humiliation is the first lesson. Once they swallow their pride and
    realize they rule at our pleasure, the rest is easy.
