Is this the first time in history?

Almighty Colin · 03-12-2003

I know there are quite a few history buffs around here.

Is this the first time in history that one nation has been forced to destroy it's missiles, have weapons inspectors all over it's country and been forced to permit high altitude spy flights over it during the last days on the road to war?

I sure the flights were to aid the UN inspectors (also the military) and I remember reading there was a fuss because they had taken off from Saudi Arabia...

I got the link here somewhere... lemme see....

I think Saddam is hoping by doing things peace-meal he will escape a war.... we all know that will not happen. But Saddam really thinks he can keep on putting things off, then give in a litle, and will eventually break up any coalition of the willing - and then escape a war because he thinks the US will not go alone, and if we do - he thinks he can inflcit enough casualies on our soldiers that we will run away.

OF coure I do not think Saddam can comprehend what is about to hit him, as well as the resolve WE as a nation has, and more importantly the resolve of Bush!

FOxNews had a good article on the war protests, how the groups that are orginizing them are being supported $$ wise by terroris groups, communist groups ( groups that think N. Korea is a nice place), and groups that support Cuba/Castro.

Funny how so many sheep are willing to be led around by these people....

"useful idiots"

I think Saddam thinks that too.

Using Gulf War I as a model ... Saddam made a public statement in 1990 that the coalition would not fight if heavy casualties were taken. It is quite apparent that he thought his military was capable of inflicting them. I would guess ... that he thinks he will inflict heavy casualties on US/British/other? troops in his cities and that they will pull out as a result.

Mike, did you know modern thinking of that comes from Lebanon and Hezbollah ?

When they hit Marines in Lebanon in 83, we ran away.
They expected the same results in 93 when they blew up Towers in Saudi Arebia.

Than it 2000 Israel withdrew from Lebanon and Hezbollah claimed victory. Arafat thought he could do one better and launched his Intifada soon after.

you see the patern ?

Slav, you are right. Even in Somolia after the battle we had there, we bugged out and left a year afterwards. That is the general concpetion about the US when it comes to military intervention.

I cannot imagine what we would do if we had the kind of blood shed we had in WWII....

Thank goodness, I do not think Iraq can come anywhere close to this - and will not inflict many causualties on our troops!

Another such move?

By calling for the UN to meet today, Saddam still can't attack first. If war starts tonight, he was prevented diplomatically from pre-emptively attacking.

Hmm.. The other way around..

Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right.. Here I am stuck in the middle with you.
...And you started of with nothing and you're proud that you're a self made man.
...And your friend they all come crawling, slap you on the back and say.... Plea-ea-ea-ea-ea-ea-ea-eas...... Plea-ea-ea-ea-ea-ea-ea-eas...

I caught part of a story on NPR today about Saddams reaction when the bombs starting hitting during the first Gulf War. Apparently when he figured out it was going on he was relieved that it wasnt a coup.
