NK is just as bad or worse. We took out saddam because he was deemed to be low hanging fruit who had a wmd program. WMD program intel proved wrong for all nations. Low hanging fruit saddam was, but the aftermath makes the whole operation now look suspect and like a failure. But today is a new day and we ARE engaged with terrorists in iraq who we must beat even if a pullout and/or three states expedites this. We are the terrorist target and once gone they lose their raison d'etre in iraq. The tribal chieftans can then take care of them.
Historian will decide all this many years from now. What we did may still turn out to be great albeit for different reasons that we thought. But we have to be flexible in our approach now. No low hanging fruit anymore in iraq. Mike
