<That made it much easier to "gameplay" what would have occurred had the US actually been required to invade the Japanese home islands. > War is not chemistry where you take 2 parts X and 1 part Y and produce Z. There's too much "gameplaying" posing as "knowing" now in Iraq and some people can't or won't quit when their "knowing" deviates from reality due to factual problems with their model. It is a waste of effort it is to TRY to convince people to the point where they get angry. My original point was lost relative to your world view and further discussion is probably pointless. Peace be with you. I close in saying that we should declare war on war and war making, not Iraqis, a nearly Stone Age agrarian people with a tiny fraction of our standard of living, and a population smaller than that of California. Saddam's removal after a decade of successful containment left a power vacuum and we seem to be clueless about how to fill it.
