Actually Pezz I think I am very pragmatic not idealistic. I said "peace is better than justice", I said that the Israeli attack on the Iraqi reactor was a good thing despite it violating Iraq's sovereignty etc. After Germany entered the Sudetenland in 1938 they should certainly have been attacked just like after Saddam's invasion of Kuwait. Up to that point containment was an appropriate strategy. If April Glaspie had told Saddam that the US would throw him out of Kuwait and try to destroy his regime if he invaded Kuwait do you think he would have done it? Instead she said they had "no opinion on disputes between Arab countries". Seems liek we keep making the same mistakes...
