the author really examines how unintended consequences can spiral out of control. Are you saying that we should have let Saddam have unchallenged access to Saudi Arabia? We should have turned down the Saudi's request for military assistance? What might the unintended consequences of inaction been? Remember, after the Gulf War we found Saddam was only months away from having a nuclear weapon capability. Is is possible that Iraq controlling Saudi Arabia and armed with nukes might have been a worse situation? Until you can own up to the unintended consequences of inaction, you have no argument. Paul
