If we weren't going to let the U.N. play out their hand if things turned sour then we never should have brought this up there in the first place. The U.S. should have just built up our presence in the gulf and out support from behind the scenes. Then just strike hard as hell. The blunder is trying to satisfy everybody - from the right wingers who want to convert the world over night to the left wingers who will never be pleased. (I'm purposely using extremes).

Strategically this is just not the right time to take on Saddam..

I think strategy is either taking Saddam out or leave him there. When it comes to timing, it is tactics. On this I agree. Our timing could have been different, and tactics in going about it could have been different.

Joe, change your coulds to shoulds and we are in agreement. The way this was handled was pretty amateurish.
