including hydrogen and high-radiation neutron warheads, deliverable by
state-of-the-art Jericho missiles and, flying F-15's, F-16's and F-4's,
some of the finest pilots in the world. Israel is also the Mideast's
largest producer of chemical weapons, including nerve, blistering and
choking agents; as well as the largest producer of biological weapons,
reportedly including anthrax, plague, Q fever and Tularemia, all of which
it can deliver by air or missile.
Against this sea of potential death, reaching from North Africa to the
borders of China, Saddam's "threat" is nothing but a joke. Yet does Bill
Clinton bomb Syria? Does he invade Iran? Does he demand a dismantling
of all weapons of mass destruction in the region, or at least of those
belonging to our enemies? Does he even mention the real and pressing
threat of North Korea? No. Mr. Clinton waves the bloody shirt -- from
yet another war in which he took no part -- letting slip the dogs of war
against a country that can barely fight back. He is nothing more than a
schoolyard bully, and with a purpose: to cover over the perjuries which
would otherwise now see him impeached.
Americans, as well as thousands of Iraqi wives and daughters, should
remember that fact when the bombs begin to fall. Why Iraq, Mr. Clinton?
Because this really is "Wag the Dog." From America's perspective at
least, it won't be a war; it'll be a pageant.
