Did you think war with the USSR was inevitable when they had not one or two but thousands of sophisticated nuclear tipped missles aimed at our cities for about 50 years. No, you probably didn't because we had the same and adhered to a containmen defense that came to be known as MAD, ie mutual assured destruction. This is the basic premise for my opposition to invading Iraq.....why would the guy commit suicide now? He is no military threat to anyone......

"I don't expect it to be easy, but I believe war with Saddam is inevitable"

I just realized that the post you were responding to was the one about generals giving opinions at odds with the Commander in Chief. I sent you links showing that very prominent generals have done that in the present Iraq case. Your comment please....
