SC,
Truth is that hyped WMD isnt what made us go when we did, it was the calender. And if there were no calender issues, even if we had delayed for more inspections the results of the war were likely to have been the same--victory and then hitting the ground limping with pacification. Like Hawk, i am disappointed and buy into friedmans logic today.
But i would like you guys to admit that although the wmd issue may have been hyped to justify the military action, it in no way changes the fact that every nation and the UN believe saddam had those weapons. And thats the disturbing questions is not whether they existed but what happened to them. I am noticing positions moving closer on Israel/pal issues and beginning to see some dialogue between pro and anti war folks here and thats a good thing. Mike
