Bill -- walking you through the issue is tiring me out. You don't grasp much of what is going on in foreign policy circles and it just takes too much time to explain the obvious to you -- which you still don't get. Cheney framed a policy based on the idea of regime change by invasion -- he sold it to Bush and Bush bought it. He tried to sell it to the rest of the world and the rest of the world recoiled with serious concerns about the implications. Disarmament as a policy is fundamentally different from regime change. You can't seem to grasp any of the implications of this policy. The rest of the world saw them immediately. And for the past year the whole world pulled away from any kind of coalition with us because of our policy. Now we are at a cross-roads. Bush gave a good speech at the UN. The Security Council will NOT back a policy of regime change -- but they will support a policy of disarmament or else. Now the whole world will watch to see if Bush abides by the Security Council or, instead, breaks away and pursues regime change by invasion. We will see soon enough.
