Nope, assemble the staff of the State Dept. (including Hillary) in a large conference room. Then bring in Donald Trump to make a two word announcement.

#6  "MISLED by Saddam's cordial manner" > POSSIBLE, BUT IMX I DOUBT IT as based on my own few meetups wid Saddam in my younger days.

IFF ONE ASKED SADDAM THE RIGHT QUESTION(S) HE GAVE SAME HIS ANSWER.

The man made it clear to me that HE + ARAB-MUSLIM GOVTS. IN THE ME DID NOT LIKE OR WERE WARY OF US SUPPORT, INTENTIONS IN THE REGION, ESPEC AS PER ISRAEL + ARAB-ISRAELI CONFLICTS.

#5  . . . "cordial manner" . . .?!?!?

My god, have these people never bought a used car, an insurance policy, or been to a farmer's market? Have they ever seen a television commercial?

#1  State department botched it and the DOD bleeds. Thats how it usually goes. Someone needs to clean out Foggy Bottom with a flamethrower and then a firehose.
