I agree a 100% with you. Containment has worked with this guy at a fraction of the human and material cost of even a short war.. We have almost a 1/4 million troops, untold ships, air, subs in the vicinity now at a cost I heard approaching almost a billion/day (no link, and can be corrected here) .. What would even 10,000 inspectors and demolition experts to destroy his weapons cost for a year, probably about that one day, that one billion..

And the human cost saved would be infinite even to one parent that would lose a child as collateral damage..

What can I say more?
