The meteor is a real threat, Saddam is a potential threat.
the meteor is not guaranteed, anymore than hussein is guaranteed. i would say hussein is more likely to strike out then a meteor is...
think back in your memory, whens the last time the french got plugged with a big rock? ok.... whens the last time hussein tortured and opressed his own citizens and those of neighboring countries....
