Science fiction is fiction, and the huge amount of $$$ 
being spent to build airfields, build up supplies, etc. is not 
fiction.

  Oh c'mon.  No one wants to get rid of Saddam.  The 
  West is better off maintaining the chaos in that region.  Doesn't 
  matter what we do, we'll get blamed for their ills anyway.  No point 
  in alienating them further by overtly overthrowing Saddam then having to 
  clean up the mess.  I think we have our hands full with 
  Afghanistan.   Arab despots don't want any successful example of 
  democracy within earshot either.  If we really wanted to take him 
  out, we'd have zapped him with a laser beam from outer space long 
  ago.  The region won't be any good to us in a generation when they 
  run out of oil.--- In <A

  George Will had an interesting article several years ago.  He 
  proposed creating a new capitol city under the southern "no-fly" 
  zone.  Saddam would not be able to attack it.  The Iraqi 
  citizens would flock to it because it would thrive in trade.  It 
  could choke off oil money going to the north.  It could also serve as 
  a base for covert ops.  Seemed like an interesting idea.>
