There's far more evidence stating that the call for war is out of line. Now Iraq is allowing U2 spy planes to fly overhead. The missiles Powell cited were disclosed in papers to the UN and were acceptable. Powell dissembles when he plays dumb and acts as though this is some discovery. Iraq is contained. Iraq is not the problem. The terrorists are the problem. They are still out there and they're not being directed by Saddam. In fact, whatever happened to bin Laden? We went in and bombed Afghanistan because that was where bin Laden was hiding out and directing those who would destroy the American way. Now, it's Saddam. In fact the bush admin planned all along to attack Iraq and 9/11 gave them the excuse. However, the Iraqi cooperation is certainly stealing Bush's thunder. CIA information shows war would be a mistake leading only to increased terrorism from which we won't be able to defend ourselves because our troops are over there trying to stabilize a govt with people who don't want us there. I'm amazed you haven't gotten it yet. Saddam may be evil incarnate, but he's under control, the legions of terrorists are still out there and we need to control them. We need to be concerned with NKorea. We need to clean up the Afghanistan mess before we hamstring our military by divvying it up around the world.
