Here's something about the threat of Saddam that makes good sense. Janine Zacharia proposes the idea that he will use Palestinians to distribute a chemical or bio- agent. But she is right in that such an event would have his fingerprints on it. It would be the end of him. The Israelis are safe as long as Saddam understands this and we have to make sure that there is no way he can calculate otherwise. Our deterrence must be real and credible.
