Always love to see one of our carriers surrounded by an army of other ships. I do hope the amount we now have over there will be a deterrent enough, but I'm not sure the mini whackjob is going to care much. I think he likely sees a lot of his citizens as dispensable in any war. I think he will hold his ground up until the point he dies of old age, dies another way or is removed. Reasoning or compromising - I do not see in his future.

He's one of those that'll get it when his entire world suddenly plows up all over his ass then he'll be calling time out too late.

History repeating itself? After he was captured and interrogated, Saddam admitted he did not believe the US would attack him. A very costly miscalculation.
