Would you like to bomb Iran?

I'm Saddam.

Saddam I am. I do not like you,

Uncle Sam. Would you like

to bomb Iran? We'll sell you weapons,

despite the ban. I would not like to bomb Iran!

Praise be to Allah, and Koran! Those weapons are

against convention... Nevermind Geneva,

pay no attention! We hate Iran,

it's our contention .

We have no qualm,

no apprehension! I'll give this task

to Ibrahim.

He'll make a plan!

He'll plot a scheme!

Business as usual

with your regime. My inner circle

is full of turds.

Is it any surprise

that we'd gas the Kurds? We knew you gassed them

in '88.

We weren't concerned

'til you raided Kuwait.

You caused my invasion

to be abated,

I'm now on

your list of

most hated. Alright, you win

I'll withdraw.

I'll also kill

my son-in-law. With so little blood

spilled on

your soil,

your plot was much

too easy to foil. Could this war

have been for

oil? What is this sound?

What is this treason? Don't mind me,

I'm the voice

of reason. Now you've started

another war,

in time for

the election of

2004. We won this war

without a hitch! You hippies have

no right to bitch! But won't this war

make Bechtel rich? Who would you

hire to repair

Iraq?

Germany? Russia?

Or Jacques Chirac? This debate is

tedious and may

go on forever. To document it

in rhyme

is a tremendous

endeavor. Perhaps it's best

to let it die. Justification is

in the

beholder's eye. What will

the media report

without a war? Real news is such

a dreadful chore. Shark attacks,

SARS, invasion

from Mars.

Terrorism,

sports cars, and

Hollywood stars. Until we declare

war on

North Korea,

we'll have to

settle for this

journalistic

diarrhea. This discourse

could go on, but

what's the use? It's just a tribute

to Dr. Seuss
