For what? This is a country that can easily be contained. Yes, it can be easily contained while a George Bush is president. But history shows us that when we elect a Bill Clinton, containment goes out the window. Containment works great in Iraq so long as a competent leader is in the White House (remember, in '98, Clinton stood idly by while Iraq thumbed its nose at weapons inspections that were agreed to while Bush 41 was president). Containment failed miserably in NK while Clinton was in office. And now, we are faced with a much bigger problem as a result. If we could count on not having a weak liberal president elected at some future date, I would be totally supportive of a policy of containment for Iraq. As to NK, I think Clinton's inept handling of the situation has brought us to the brink of nuclear war. In short, containment only works if you have leadership that understands what is at stake. This administration does; but four years from now we could have a John Kerry or Gephardt or Daschle running the country. We cannot afford to risk the future on the Republicans being able to defeat the Democrat Lying Political Machine which put Clinton in office.
