Michael, I get nervous about the talk of the terrible things these tyrants do to their people. It clouds the picture. If we are going to go eyeball to eyeball with another country over the treatment of people in that country, we should keep do it without bringing the other strategic issues to bear. Otherwise, we should stay focused on the strategic issues and not use the tyrants behaviour as a justification for aggression. The world is full of tyrants treating their people poorly and I don't want to get into the business of policing them. It is useful to rebutt the Chomsky / Bilow logic with the facts though. Paul
