I agree.
The US thinking is that Saddam has to go even if he could be contained. The reasoning is that we would let the Kurds down again. I think a Kurdistan should be created, but that would get the Turks mad. Though I think that could work to the Turks advantage. Also the US gov (Wolfiwitz?) wants to create a democratic state in which to influence the region. Possible, unknown outcome there. Finally
the sanctions are going to have to be removed soon (for obvious humanitarian reasons) and
could be a problem if Saddam stays in power.

The Russian plan could work because while
inspectors are finding things, as you explained, someone may bump Saddam off.
