I thought this too...but now I am no longer sure. The rhetoric is really strong. I do hope it still however. Yes, I had second thoughts after I saw the satellite photos of that airstrip... You managed to turn the discussion "it's all Clinton's fault", as you so often do, instead of addressing the fundamentals of the situation, its effect on the world and the US. A strong president would NEVER have allowed the de facto ejection of the weapons inspectors. They were there as a condition of the ceasefire, which provided they would receive full and unfettered access. The moment that access was withdrawn, we should have INSTANTLY threatened, and if necessary, followed through with whatever military buildup was required to deal with the problem. If you REALLY want to talk about the fundamentals of the situation, that is it. Total mismanagement. An important aspect is that this weakness is seen by the Mideast community in an extremely negative way. My criticism of Clinton is not ad homenem. And if you think my reasoning doesn't apply, please refute it. But don't suggest that my statement isn't "reasoned" just because you don't agree with it.
