[Preemptive apology for unilateral political rant.]
No doubt Saddam Hussein is a psychotic tyrant and is almost certainly hiding something, but just as disturbing is the fact that our unelected king wants war so badly that he can already taste the blood. Despite the administration's plan for world peace based on intimidation and presentation of such compelling evidence as aluminum tubes and video of trucks actually being driven (I myself have been guilty of both), the rest of the civilized world has finally grown the balls to stand up to the thick-necked schoolyard bully our government has sadly become. It's no longer just embarrassing. It's downright criminal when thousands, or millions of lives are at stake.
Dear Mr. President, before you throw yourself on the floor kicking and screaming because some silly Frenchman said that this planet isn't yours to do with as you will, consider this: One single piece of reasonable evidence is all that is needed to justify your bloodlust, ridiculous vendetta in the name of your father, and inexcusable desire to control the resources of a part of the world you have no business in anyway. Even the overblown "evidence" presented thus far is flimsy at best. Come on. If you're going to lie, give us something good. No doubt there is real evidence buried somewhere on the outskirts of Bagdad. At least wait for that before you drag us all into armageddon.
There's still nothing like good simple Chinese wisdom:
"Only when we go along the line of political settlement can we truly live up to the trust and hope the international community places in the Security Council." - Chinese Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan
