Into action.....
Tonight, undoubtedly some action will begin in the long overdue military action against the tyranny of Saddam Hussein. My prayers are with the young men and women who will be asked to put their lives at risk. Here is my conjectured chronology of events.
Week 1: The bombardment will be unparalleled and by the end of the first week coalition forces will control 80% of the Northern and Southern regions of Iraq. Many large Iraqi units will surrender outright and will be found to be virtually combat ineffective, having plenty of ammuniton but no food. Chemical weapons will be used, but Uday will misjudge the wind direction wiping out his own Republican Guard. Hans Blix will say that he would have found these, eventually. The United Nations will put forth Resolution 1550 asking that inspections be given more time.
Week 2: 90% of Iraq will be in coalition hands, and special operations units will be immersed in Baghdad. Saddam is on the run seeking to return to his hometown of Tikrit, which doesn't exist anymore. Huge stores of chemical and biological weapons are discovered, all in packaging labeled, "Made in France". The UN discusses Resolution 1557, which asks for negotiations in order to avert war. France vetoes Resolution 1600 which hasn't been presented yet.
Week 3: Baghdad is effectively occupied. Saddam is spotted at a pay phone at the Saddam-11 convenience store and the chase is on! First he motors down Saddam Rd., taking a left on Saddam Dr. then a sharp right on Saddam Blvd. and quickly onto the Saddam Expressway over Saddam Creek trying to reach the Saddam International Airport. He is finally captured while trying to disguise himself as one of the 25,000 Saddam statues in the city. He claims he is a Saddam double. France enters the frey sending it's elite Mess Hall Unit, the Legion d'Escargot.
Week 4: Hostilites come to an end with the United Nations declaring a great victory. Kofi Annan says, "I knew that war was the answer, madmen like Saddam are never dissuaded by such things as negotiations or inspections". Hollywood actor Martin Sheen urges the Iraqis to fight on to prove that war is not the answer. On the home front, protestors urge President Bush to declare war on North Korea, they already have their "No Blood for Kim Chee" banners ready.
