72. ?? Cowardly? Yes and no.
Edited on Thu Aug-19-04 09:13 AM by Frodo
How's that for "careful"?


Avoiding a charge of being cowardly does not mean lowering your military prowess to the level of your opponent. You don't need to walk out naked with sticks and stones and send 2/3 of your forces home to make it "fair". Combat does not require "fairness".

However. Saddam's actions WERE cowardly completely apart from using overwhelming force.
