#1 Umm, what is Saddam's point? I don't get it. Maybe my brain is just confused since it's late afternoon on Wednesday, but then again Saddam's rantings are often utter nonesense. Someone, please help me understand!

#3 Ah, thanks tu3031! I was trying too hard - I assumed "machine guns" had to be a metaphore for something... "sandbags" a metaphore for something else - but for what, I had no idea!

The next thing you know Sammy will pick up on the concept of bullets for those machine guns. That would be a REAL tactical breakthrough!

#4 Like Schwarzkopf said, Saddam is a great military man.
