the war on terror will probably be as long as vietnam, but this war wont. remember, the first gulf war lasted something like 230 days. we are, what, almost two weeks into this war? plus, we are already marching on baghdad, so i wouldnt worry about an extended war in iraq.

most iraqis are against hussein, but they hate the americans more. i doubt that we will have to worry about him becoming the next saladin especially if he continues to do such things as fire on civilians fleeing the war.
