Irony

[gburner]

Question.....

Does it strike anyone else as ironic that Sadaam Hussein is telling the entire world 'molon labe' when it comes to giving up the weapons that are demanded of him. Whatever you might think of him, the guy has huevos the size of casaba melons to be flippin' off the world like he's been doing. Though I hope we dispatch him to a previously unknown level of the underworld where he will spend eternity smoking dog rockets and watching Janet Reno shower, you just gotta marvel at a guy who is down to his last bullet and ain't even thinking about eating the gun. Discuss among yourselves.

Well, the same thing could be said about the Symbionese Liberation Army. Bravery and lunacy are not the same thing.

saddam is playing the world as he would a card game.he wants people to argue over should we or shouldnt we,thatll leave him to his own devices and whatever plans he may have.thats his only "ace" an hes counting on peoples sympathy(if you will) to let him pursue his deranged goals.i believe theres alot more "skelatons" in saddams closet than we would think or know of.

I lean towards the insanity theory. I've seen courage, and I don't think Saddam has the real thing. Put him in a mano a mano situation, and he'll fold like a wet tissue.

But he is smart. As was said, playing the world to his own ends.

There are plenty of reports that Saddam was crying like a little baby during Desert Storm when it looked like we were gonna put his head on a stick.

He's a bully, an insane bully -- tis all.

 

[Standing Wolf]

I'm sure he's planning to continue to fire off his over-sized mouth until the moment he bolts into exile in some safe haven, complete with Swiss bank account numbers.

Saddam hasnt realized that he's playing Old Maid when everyone else is playing poker. He'll realize his mistake soon enough.
