WHAT'S WITH THIS NUT?

Scott Ritter, the former Marine, UN weapons inspector and current propaganda mouthpiece for Saddam Hussein, says that the US will lose the war with Iraq.

"The United States is going to leave Iraq with its tail between its legs, defeated. It is a war we can not win," he told private radio TSF in an interview broadcast here [Lisbon] Tuesday evening. And why won't we win? "We do not have the military means to take over Baghdad and for this reason I believe the defeat of the United States in this war is inevitable," he said.

I just wonder whose payroll he is on. You can read the story in a South African paper.
