Perhaps Clinton was thinking that Saddam provided a balance to Iran. Removing him may not...in the short term be a good thing, especially since he was contained. How did we get rid of the former Soviet Union? No war was needed. Sometimes it's better to lead the horse with a carrot rather than with a stick. To the untrained observer, both methods seems to work. In the case of using the stick you always have the worry of the horse rearing up. In the case of the carrot, you have to watch out that the horse doesn't bite the hand that feeds it. Both strategies have pitfalls. But clearly the war solution is one that should be left for a last resort when danger is imminent. Clearly there was no need to rush to war. Far more could have been done to help the Iraqi people. Think carrot instead of stick...and you'll answer for yourself the many ways how. Orca
