Z,

Ten years. Ok, let's use your number. At what point do we do something and what do we do? 8 years? 9 years? Sounds like a good reason for the US to continue deploying the antimissile defense shield at a minimum.

Do you remember Iraq kicked inspectors out several times?

North Korea kicked out the inspectors also.

Now what would you suggest we do. Inspections failed.

Iraq, North Korea, Iran, any threat. It would seem it would be easier to pay now instead of later.

Israel took care of Saddam's initial nuclear threat.

According to some estimates, Iraq in 1981 was still as much as five to ten years away from the ability to build a nuclear weapon. Others estimated at that time that Iraq might get its first such weapon within a year or two. Prime Minister Menachem Begin felt military action was the only remedy.

Ironic you used the ten year figure....
