Ten,

re: No, it means there is a disagreement over the extent of the threat.

Disagreement is a mild word. The countries that opposed the invasion have been proven right, no immediate threat, no WMD's.

re: It is to me too. The difference is that I think it's worth it.

I don't, regardless of the outcome for Iraq. But in the next 6 months, 2 years, 5 years we will see what the ultimate "benefit" was from the soldiers sacrifice, the monetary sacrifice, and the political sacrifice.

re: We can't be GloboCop, so we'll need to apply our standards selectively.

Impose is a better word than "apply". So the US is now a "selective" "GloboCop"?

re: What reason does HRW have when they apply their standard selectively? Human rights are human rights; there should be no double-standard.

You are right there, if that is what they are doing. I care much more about what our government does.
