what difference does it make?

ok, tackle this one:

>>>We have a WAR STALEMATE<<<

courtesty of the war protestors

if we let Saddam slide the answer that we will get in all future conflicts that the world tries to resolve through diplomacy will be:

"You and whose army is going to make me comply?"

"I know you are bluffing."

It would be certain CHAOS.

You are either for a concerted effort to resolve world conflicts through diplomacy WITH THE ACTUAL THREAT OF FORCE IF YOU DON'T COMPLY, or you are for world chaos.

It is not any more complicated than that.
