...I admire you. Seriously, I do. I think there's no other being on this little tiny ball of mud who was blessed with less intelligence and political skill, yet with more influence than you. Or maybe you're just an idiot with tons of luck. Who is to tell? Not me.

I frequently read through the politics sections of the following newspapers and refer to or quote from:
...quick! get an interpreter! You have to have a look at this!
Walgreens took out an Easter packet designed for children that contained toy soldier fidures alongside with the sweets. Concurring firms did not join in; apparently, the profits made with that sort of Easter surprise are too "nice" to show some hint of moral competence...
Seriously, I think Walgreen does the right thing; to teach your people, and especially your children the true meaning of tolerance, understanding and - for Christ's sake - moral.
Maybe you should hire those corporate guys for your staff, what do you think? I'm sure they would find a rather nice way out of your Iraq problem! They might actually be worth their money, unlike your war-mongering clique around Mr Schwarzkopf, Mr Powell and the likes...
...so it's that time again? So - since you completely lack any base or evidence for actually, finally waging war on Iraq - you have to start up those old (but nevertheless well-working) guess-work factories again? Those that bring misinformation, "hints" and all those probablys and maybes into the papers?
"An American official who described the weapon said it was discovered in the last few months, since the United Nations inspectors returned to Iraq in November." - Riiiight! And because of some ultra-evil-conspiracy against you, this information has been kept out of any reports by Mr Blix and Mr elBaradei? Convincing idea, really...
"American officials said the discovery showed that Iraq could not be trusted to cooperate with the inspectors." - Aha. Correct me if I'm wrong, but according to the previous statement by "an American official", you knew for months that Iraq had those warheads (even if not officially, because the evil conspirators Blix and elBaradei kept the information secret) and now you're accusing Iraq of cheating? I mean, c'mon, how much can you be a hypocrite? The U.N. voting just knocked you out cold and now you are - again, as I might add - on a desperate hunt to frame His Evilness Saddam Hussein.
Don't get me wrong! I fully agree with you on the point that Mr Hussein is probably the most evil bitch on this planet at the moment. I also agree with you that he's one hell of a danger to quite a lot of people, including his own. But - and that's an important "but" - how's this: You have no evidence whatsoever that he actually has any sort of weapons of mass destruction. All you have is hints, that he might have kept a small depot of chemical weapons secret back in 1998 when the inspections were cancelled (even though that's a very, very thin guess); unfortunately - regarding your point and Mr Hussein's warheads - those depots would be completely worthless by now, due to the chemical substances used. No idea if you ever had chemistry, but I'm rather sure you have a load of eggheads who know their science and they should be telling you the truth, which is: the lifespan of those chemicals doesn't exceed 5 years, if they live that long at all!
And then there were those useful photographs you got your hands on. The photographs that are said (or should I say "supposed"?) to show something like a Frog missile, which could be used as carriers for chemical components. But funny, isn't it, that "(t)he official did not say how the photographs were obtained", hmm?
Call me a paranoid, but given your history with misinformation and manipulation of "info" material, I would rather bet on the chance that you faked those pictures, really...
