I think Bush is going to have to attack soon if he wants to have the public behind him. The American public usually acts like a herd of sheep but if a few of the sheep are spooked then the herd can change direction quickly.

I have to agree with John le Carré's point that "deflecting America?s anger from bin Laden to Saddam Hussein is one of the great public relations conjuring tricks of history".

Sadaam had little to do with 9/11 compared to Osama. We are going after Sadaam because Bush needs a head on a stick and Sadaam is a lot easier to find than Osama plus the benefits of taking out the man in control of the world's second largest oil-field will be a lot more lucrative for the US than just killing a terrorist mastermind.
