I don't know how these posts got by me but they did. Anyway...

"If we go on consequences, then everyone poses a global threat"

Right.

"I choose to use the calculus I already articulated"

Right. Your calculus is not bad. I think it is insufficient given the totality of circumstances...but you (as anyone else) can only relate to your own experience...so (given that none of us can make a perfect judgement by virtue of seeing the future)...perhaps your judgement is superior to mine. I have lived long enough to know that sometimes the good guys have to act first. I can also tell you that the US has been bombing Iraq for weeks and that the media will soon start reporting on it. It is not a question of IF you go to war...

Maybe try to trust your people'intelligence and not be too cynical. Up to you...
