Other people – and not all of them are in Europe – think that establishing a precedent for preemptive war in the absence of an imminent and compelling threat.. It's a new world, Steven, in which "imminent" and "compelling" have new meanings. I won't go into it in detail since I presume you've heard all the arguments. Nevertheless, the new threats are not in the nature of tanks and armies being mobilized--things which can be seen at a distance and for which we can prepare. The new threats are more insidious and slippery. The damage they can do can be both substantial and immediate. Don't expect revenge-driven whack-jobs like Saddam or AQ to warn.
