Well, the possible next UN resolution is the one supposed to define conditions for war, not 1441. That is why Bush&Co uses words like "the sovereign right of USA", "pre-emptive strike against future attacks" and why it is so important to have some Al-Qaeda in the no-fly-zones where Saddam cannot easily get to them.

Iraq is not enough of a threat to piss off the entire ME, nor is it dangerous enough that it should distract us from going after Al Qaeda. I would prefer our interventions to make some sense, and Iraq, for me, and for most of the rest of the world, doesn't look like a sensible target. If and when the rest of the world sees it a real axis of evil, let's go in- but only with UN approval. We may need the goodwill of the rest of the world at some point. Seems silly to blow it over Iraq. Of course we've already done blown quite a bit of goodwill, but an actual solo invasion would only make things much much worse.

Do it quickly and get it over with. To:Vitas who wrote (11718) From: Mighty_Mezz Sunday, Feb 23, 2003 11:29 AM View Replies (1) | Respond to of 12245 4
