>>> The use of military might to solve the problem simply creates more problems, the solutions for which are all more expensive than a careful application of traditional diplomacy.<<< Indeed, true! Perhaps we should ask those who post here in a fervor for war what alternatives they can think of, that would avoid the US committing force to what history will almost certainly deem as an unjust war. Unfortunately, when all of the facts are on the table, this war smacks of ulterior motivation and in no way seems born from a principle of just cause.
