Somehow the intelligence of the "war without end" has eluded me. I see the issue as UN member compelling Saddam Hussain to honor the conditions he agreed to in the cease fire. The integrity of the UN is at stake. In fact, if he doesn't comply, and there is one primary reason for noncompliance, unless he is compelled, there will be a proliferation of threats. Attacking Saddam will prove a deterrent and not a stimulus to war. Tony Blair just claimed that he will release information about Saddam's violations. We'll see how persuasive the evidence will be.

A recent poll just indicated that 60% of Europeans, as opposed to their leaders, support a US invasion --if it has international backing. Unfortunately, we've inherited the title of the world's policeman, and the ambivilance that we have to cops is evident in the world. However, we all turn to cops when threatened.

Finally, after Reagan bombed Khadaffi, terrorism from Libya ended.
