Is vapourising Iraq the only answer?

How about taking out the Iraqi regime, with surgical strikes against the military, the transportation infrastructure, utilities and communications?

If it is us against them, and only one is going to survive, I pick us. Who do you pick?

What will America gain by attacking Iraq?

Nothing!

We will loose some of our children.

We will loose hundreds of billion in tax dollars.

We will suffer disruption in our close historical allies in Europe and alienate a billion Moslems.

We will loose a sense of marality and ethics in future diplomacy and foreign affairs.
