Robert, The problem that JBL, Les, Ish, Neocon, and me have is that we have all read our history books. Everything we have seen from history indicates that this mission will fail to achieve lasting peace. Of course, Rome had its "pax-Romana" or Roman Peace as it was known. If you can put a UN trooper on every street corner on the planet, you can have your "peace". The problem is that every nation that has tried this has been doomed to failure. I might suggest reading J. William Fullbright's book "Arrogance of Power" which the Senator wrote in 1966 and warned about the coming disaster in Viet Nam. Of course, LBJ was so drunk with power that he (like Clinton) thought he could either bomb or bribe his way through any kind of problem. There you have it. I have warned you. -John
