I have see him speak before about this. He is compelling in his message that this is completely unnecessary. It's hard to somehow disconnect this venture with the fact that both Cheney and Bush sensitivities are towards energy, so they may see a subjugated Iraq as a controlling element towards a hard to control Saudi Arabia and other oil producing nations and also as an opportunity to establish a permanent foothold in a Middle Eastern country that can't just ask them to leave the way Saudi Arabia has been murmured to when things get a little sticky.

Al,

He also stated that if Iraq were such a threat why are the nations most in danger like Kuwait or the UAE not screaming in chorus with the US? And while he does see Saddam as a threat, where is the proof that he is developing weapons of mass destruction or biological weapons? Finally, he wonders at the true agenda of the current White House......which may have been a veiled reference to what you state above.

What is he.......a born again liberal? <g> Reagan would have a fit if he only knew.
