Thread Header: "But the Bush Administration seems poised to conduct war on Iraq with or without proof."

1. "The inspectors' discoveries follow a radical improvement in relations between UN officials and Western intelligence which had been reluctant to hand over sensitive information for fear that it might fall into the hands of Iraqi officials, thereby risking the lives of agents working in Iraq."

2. "The United States meanwhile gave its strong backing to mooted plans to offer Iraqi President Saddam Hussein exile to avoid a war."

quotes from articles linked at: Message 18468736

The fact that Western intelligence handed over the information at the risk of their agents clearly indicates that President Bush is trying to achieve a solution without going to war.

The fact that the United States gave its strong backing to mooted plans to offer Iraqi President Saddam Hussein exile
clearly indicates that President Bush is trying to achieve a solution without going to war.

As Bill told you:

"The US policy of peace through strength is designed to avert war. That's what it did with USSR and that's what it will do with this Iraq situation. So everybody keep your pants on and let the process play itself out."

And you will never "get" it.

Bush is the good guy, Saddam is the bad guy. It is solely Saddam's responsibility to avoid war.

He has to start being thoroughly credible and very diplomatic.

Otherwise we are really not going to have a choice in what to do.
