The only point where I differ is I'm not yet certain it won't still end with a war. I'm sufficiently cynical to believe that evidence can be manufactured, if the admin is bent on regime change no matter what.

I'm afraid I have to agree with you, Kevin. It looks like we are going to war. One of the telling things, evidently, about the 16 UN resolutions violations Bush cited, is that all but the wmd ones are precisely at the level that such resolution violations are presently in place for both the US and Israel, at least so say some.

At the moment, it looks as if, absent some unmanufactured evidence (and if they had that I assume Bush would have used it in his UN speech), the invasion is likely to be best explained as Richard Perle did, a face saving move.
