[Joe Dees]
I, for one, am not prepared to wait for the mushroom cloud to rise above New Your harbor in
order to salve your need for a basis; an ounce of prevention is worth a megaton of cure.
[rhinoceros] They could just wait for two and a half years, with surveilance and everything, and see how it goes. (Didn't they say that Saddam will have da bomb ready in three years?) In this way, much less people would see Bush and his advisors as mad(wo)men attacking just on a hunch.
[Jake] Good point Rhino. Additionally we should also consider the fact that having a bomb and delivering it are two different things. It is highly improbable that even were he to build a few nuclear devices that he could actually bring about the mushroom cloud over New York harbor, as Joe overblown rhetoric suggests. Apparently Joe thinks Saddam has some sort of teleportation device that will immediately deliver the bomb to us upon its completion.
