>Again, the important point is that the United States occupying Iraq would have left us in an untenable position with respect to the Arab countries, and in fact, to the rest of the world. Instead of fighting Iraq, we would have been fighting the rest of them, right down to Kuwait. We're doing it in Afghanistan (not Arab, but Muslim). We're not occupying, we're nation-building. We could've done the same in Iraq. Bush should've done it, and after he didn't, Clinton should've done it. My feeling is that powerful democracies have the responsibility to depose harsh dictatorships. -Z
