Ted,

re: Once again, and for the last time, the moral justification for the war is not what sold the Amer. public on this war but rather the trumped up fear of WMD and terrorist link ups.

I can't believe that anyone seriously bought the "threat to the US" justification for the Iraq war. SH was always a danger to his own people, he was never a terrorist. And Iraq had been reduced to a backwater republic by the sanctions. We are far more threatened by domestic terrorists than we are by anyone from Iraq (in fact we always have been more threatend from within than from without).

If you get a chance, pick up the current New Yorker magazine and read the "Letter from Iraq" column. It gives a good historical perspective on Iraq wrt oil, and what's up going forward.
