Anyone want to make a personal prediction if US attacks Iraq

I predict the following events if the US attacks Iraq:

Saddam Hussein will do the same thing that he did when George the First attacked Iraq. Hussein had a plane ready to fly him and his family out of Iraq to safety if the liberating forces came too close. He sabotaged the oil fields of Kuwait. He launched scud missles against Israel.

Hussein will flee Iraq if threatened.

Hussein will sabotage Iraq's oil fields. He will no longer be able to skim off billions of dollars from oil sales stolen from the Iraqi people---so he has no incentive to protect the oil fields, but he can temporarily prevent the US and other invaders from oil profits.

Hussein MAY launch missles against Israel and the invading forces. They may be conventional weapons or mass-destruction weapons, depending on whether or not he can deploy them fast enough to avoid prior detection by the US and their destruction by air.

If Iraq's current government falls, we will see a repeat of what happened to the former Yugoslovia and the Balkans and, currently, in Afghanistan. Nationalist, Tribal and religious sect fighting in a civil war.

Before long, the US will tire of the trouble and costs involved and will desert the Iraqi people just as they have deserted other populations, most recently in Afghanistan and the Iraqi Kurds.

Terrorist attacks against the US and it's allies will increase.

The US economy will be devastated by the costs of this war and the subsequent years of trying to resolve the conflicts in the Middle East and in Iraq.

North Korea will feel more threatened by US attack as a result of the war against Iraq---leading to dangerous games of chest-beating.

More and more politically unstable tribal-based nations will attempt to obtain nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction with which to threaten their enemies and imperilistic powers.
