<A senior Defense Department official said that lessons from the attacks against Saddam Hussein of Iraq, including short-notice air strikes on suspected hideouts in the opening and closing days of the war, are shaping discussions of how best to re-arrange the American military presence in South Korea and nearby in the Pacific.> Could someone explain how this is any different, from the attempted 9/11/01 Al Queda attack on the White House? How are we going to feel about it, when other nations adopt our doctrine of "preventive war", combined with "targetted assassinations"? We will loudly condemn them, calling them terrorists and savages.
