Question: If America shouldn't attack Saddam before he obtains weapons of mass destruction, when should we ever attack a dictator which threatens world peace?

Will we be safer to attack in 3-5 years when he has nuclear weapons?

Will we be safer to let him laugh at our weapons inspectors, and attack after he launches WMD against Kuwaiit, Saudi Arabia, Iran or Israel?

Should we just hope for the best. Hope this madman comes to his senses one day?

The case to attack Iraq and remove Saddam from power is a far easier one to make then the one President Clinton made in Kosovo to remove Milosovic. Hussein is a much greater threat then Milosovic ever was.

Being the world's only superpower places a unique responsibility on our shoulders. Sometimes we must lead where others are unable or unwilling to.
