Well, maybe bombs aren't WoMD (though in my oppinion they are) but we are going to bomb them with that kind of missiles Saddam isn't allowed to have. Or not?[/QUOTE]We will not use chemical, biological, or nuclear weapons against Iraq. Those are the weapons of mass destruction we hear so much about, and those are the weapons Iraq is not allowed to have, and they are also not allowed to have delivery devices for WoMD, so to answer your question, "no we will not bomb Iraq with the kind of weapons they are not allowed to have."
Now if you are talking about the Al-Samoud missiles, our missiles do far exceed the distance of the Al-Samoud II's. Iraq is not allowed to have missiles whose range exceeds 150K because of their history of attacking and invading their neighbors, and their history of using chemical and biological while attacking. This was a term of the ceasefire the Iraqis agreed to.
We will also use the NO-Fly Zone which Iraq isn't allowed to use, too. That zone was set up post-Gulf War in the North after Iraq began killing the Kurds... again. The southern No-Fly Zone was set up to protect the Shiites who were being massacred. The Iraqis submit to this because when they don't, their pilots die and their planes are destroyed.
We will also use some weapons the Iraqis never showed interest in.... weapons designed to minimize civilian casualities.
