A Way to Avert War: Waddya Think?

Here's a thought......how much do they estimate a war with Iraq would cost? Something like 25 billion dollars, plus another 40 to 50 billion a year after Saddam is overthrown.

So, how about this...instead of wasting all that money, why don't we just buy Iraq? Shit, how much could it cost to buy? 20 billion, 30 billion (I haven't checked EBAY recently)? Buy it, then turn it into a gigantic desert gambling oasis, like Las Vegas on steroids. Saddam no idealist...just a greedy demagogue...he'd probably take 20 billion.
