If attacked by U.S., Saddam likely to unleash chemical warheads on U.S., Israel
http://www.washtimes.com/national/20020617-80822334.htm
In a fight for his survival, Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein would be likely to unleash his arsenal of chemical and germ warheads on American troops and Israel, military sources and analysts say.
That deadly prospect, they say, makes it paramount that any war plan approved by President Bush contain tactical surprise, pre-emptive air strikes and a strategy for turning some Iraqi military units against their supreme leader.
"You can hope for deterrence to work," said Kelly Motz, editor of Iraq Watch, which publishes research on Baghdad's varied weapons programs. "But if you are saying you are going to change the regime and take Saddam out of power, what does he have to lose if he favors power over his life?"
