I had a long answer but lost it. The gist was I'm glad GW and Clinton were both concerned about Iraq. After 12 years of UN weapons inspections...still the inspectors wanted to continue inspecting because after those 12 years they still thought he had WMD. The CIA had 12 years and they thought WMD was a "slam dunk" as Tenet said. Nobody knew for sure. Well do you risk 1200 U.S. lives to find out for sure or do you riks the lives of hundreds of thousands of Americans to find out out..ooops yep he had them. Sorry about the mass casualties, but we didn't want to put our troops in harms way unless we are 100% sure he had WMD. Can you imagine how risky it would have been to let this unknown WMD situation continue? Who cares what the Arabs think. Who cares what the French and Germans think. Our National Security is at stake here not the French and Germans. Everybody thought Bin Laden was contained in Afghanistan and had no WMD. Bin Laden could have killed 100,000 people if the towers collapsed on impact.
