Things Fall Apart



My theory is: Saddam Hussein has clones.
And of course, each successive clone is a little dumber than the previous. One clone decided to attack Iran. Another thought April Glaspy said it was okay to invade Kuwait, and yet another was running this war.
What happened to the Circle of Death? The oil trenches dug aroung Baghdad and then set ablaze? What happened to the night vision goggles Rummy was so concerned about? What happened to flooding the Karbala gap, sabotaging oil wells, attacking Israel and making the Tigris and Euphrates rivers run red with the blood of infidels? What happened to the chemicals and the red line outside Baghdad? What happened to "I'm a crazy MoFo with nothing to lose and i'll fight to death..." blah, blah, blah? At least make them put on a good show when the troupe comes to the big city. At this rate we'll be invading Syria by July and Iran by next January, and i'm not ready for the Pax Americana yet; I still have laundry to do.

Does this mean that Ted Koppel has to put away his oversized fatigues and dusty pith helmet now? He looks like the knock-off army man action figure you would get for your birthday when you wanted a G.I. Joe, but your parents were either broke or deferring your desires until christmas, or just didn't know the difference. But we know, Ted. We know.
