Uh-huh. The Europeans couldn't whip Saddam's arse if they wanted to? Think again. You obviously know squat about European countries and their armies. The British sure could, the French could do it, the Germans could do it, the Italians and Spaniards could do it, and for one thing, if the European Union made a concentrated effort to remove Sadddam by force, he wouldn't even have the slimmest of hopes. Don't make such baseless assumptions. It's just that European Union did not, and would not unless facd with a situation it was forced into, invade Iraq.
