Not looking to start a flame war, but your statement suggests saddam is stupid since he is their leader and makes all the decisions.
Ouch...that's even worse than misinterpreting me to think Sadaam is stupid. If you ever told an Iraqi that Sadaam Hussein is their generic representation of intelligence, he'd probably shoot you or say some funky words in a funky language. Do you think Sadaam Hussein is the leader at the discretion of the people? If so, why do militants surrender before there is even a war? Would you ever elect a leader that killed men for surrendering??
I don't want to start a flame war either but that statement was ignorant. Yes, I am afraid of what Sadaam has up his sleeve but I have 100% confidence in the leadership of George W and Colin Powell. God Bless.
