The announcement that Iraq will allow the U.N. weapons inspectors back into Iraq – with "no pre-conditions" – is, of course, a total charade orchestrated by Saddam.
Here is what he will now do:
While buying time with this announcement, Saddam wants to get the world's focus off him and onto some other "story." He learned this past spring that violence inside Israel and on the West Bank took the heat off him. He even publicly announced that he was paying the families of Palestinian suicide bombers. Why? Because he knew that the entire Arab world cares more about hurting Israel than about displacing Saddam.
So, by fomenting trouble elsewhere in the Middle East he took the focus off his own malfeasance.
You can bet that right this very minute Saddam is exploring an even more horrendous Palestinian attack on Israel – with no trace back to Baghdad – again to divert American and world focus off Iraq.
Don't be surprised to see Saddam – using Palestinian 'cutouts' – use biological weapons in heavily populated Israeli locations, to really gum things up.
Also, look for an unexpected Saddam move toward his former arch enemy, Iran.
Iran, you say?
Let us remember that in the Gulf War, Saddam flew his entire air force to Iran and parked it in the Iranian mountains. Who would have thunk it, eh?
War enemies for most of the 1980s, Iran and Iraq suddenly drew closer when the Great Satan came into the region.
Last week the Iranian government announced some level of support for Baghdad in light of President Bush's U.N. speech.
Don't be surprised to see an "alliance of convenience" if war becomes imminent. Don't be shocked if Saddam cedes "temporary sovereignty" over his oil fields to Iran – in return for safe harbor for himself and close allies inside Iran.
Nothing – absolutely nothing – should surprise us when it comes to Saddam.
Before we get to that stage, though, Saddam will buy more time. He will stall and delay and jerk around gullible U.N. diplomats – i.e., wimps – and when the inspectors arrive in Iraq they are not going to go where they want. Period. We know that. The question is: How mad will the U.N. then get? Mad enough to authorize war?
Or will Saddam have by then launched some new atrocity that once again allows him to survive?
