WUWT: Appreciate that well thought out post. I mean that. In my mind, though, it all boils down to those on the left just sitting on their hands and doing NOTHING. We finally have a President who said what he was going to do and he executed his plan. Iraq ignored all those previous UN resolutions for over 10 years. After 9-11, George Bush said, If you harbor terrorists, if you fund terrorists, or basically if you have anything to do with terrorists, we are coming after you. He has kept his word. Regards, BobP

Yours is a preciously rare position, WUWT. In literally hundreds of separate debates and discussions (dozens of them on the "Don't Start The War" thread on SI) I generally found those opposed to the war to exhibit a high degree of emotionalism and irrationality and a lack of civility or tolerance when compared to those supporting the war. Much of it boiled down to some combination of anti-Americanism or anti-Bushism. While the obvious discovery of WMD would for me at this time be little more than icing on the cake, for many anti-war protesters even this would not shake them from their positions. Nothing, not money or love or any belonging of any kind, is held more deeply or dearly than a belief--MK--
