Just some things I think deserve a bit of your consideration...

 

Only one member of congress has a child in military that may have to fight in this war.

 

There are 38,000 Amercian troops stationed along the North Korean border. Military personnel have recently commented that (and sorry I don't remember who to attribute this to) "the North Korean army would go through them like goose shit through a tin horn."  and that they are there simply to serve as a "tripwire". Comforting thought huh?

 

A Pentagon report predicts that in a war with Iraq, fought in accordance with the current gameplan, our American Armed Forces would suffer 3000 casualties and 10,000 wounded.

 

It should be noted that Saddam Hussein is a secular individual and not a practicing Muslim.  There is little that would tie him to or interest him in a "Holy War"or Jihad with the United States.  He is of course one hell of a hideous human being but if this was our determining factor for going there and killing him, we have a lot of killing to do in many other countries I'd say...
