Joe,

Kissinger just sort of summed up my feelings about the inspections vs. war in answer to a question by Sarbanes.

Basically, he said he could not envision a scenario under which inspections alone would be sufficient WITHOUT a change in the current regime (removal of Saddam). But, he qualified it with an open-minded attitude -- IF someone can present the details of an inspection regime that will work with Saddam in power, that should be used first.

I agree with this. IF someone can come up with an ironclad way of assuring that Saddam is disarmed, then he becomes no threat and we should stay out of Iraq.

I guess really everyone agrees with this for the most part; there just seems to be broad disagreement as to what would be required to assure he has no WMD. Some would be satisfied with Saddam declaring it to be so; I don't feel that way...
