It can't be too soon.

As for feeling bad for the sons, remember that they died in what has been described as a pretty fierce firefight with our forces. They could have surrendered and faced international justice, but chose their own fate in the end.

I find it difficult to feel sorry for them in any way.

As a side note, I don't think it's necessarily dumb to be concerned about possible retaliation from Saddam, so the remark about Y2K might be sillier than the post that sparked that reply. Saddam may have resources that we know nothing of.

Edited to add:

Just watched an ABC Special where they were speculating that Saddam might try something spectacular to go out in a blaze of glory.

Maybe, maybe not. But I don't think we should celebrate too early.
