Ted, Its the next step because there are no WMD. No, it's the next step regardless of WMD or the politics of the Bush Administration. Even in the USAToday poll I posted some time ago (#reply-18995838), 56% say the war in Iraq would be justified even if weapons of mass destruction were not found; 41% say it would not. I'd rather listen to them than the hypocrites among the French and German populations, some of whom profitted from Saddam's very existence. Tenchusatsu

tejek, re:Who's says its the next step? Its the next step because there are no WMD. It's the next step and has been since the war ended - we've been looking for wmd for over twelve years ted. We continue to look, but helping the people began the day the war started. re:and the UN is involved on some level. The UN was going to send 5000 troops in 2000, but they changed their minds as they knew they'd just get killed. re:But there can be no pretense....without oil, the Congo can not be of "national interest" to the US I don't suffer that pretense, I've stated as fact we don't go to these places unless we have a national interest (or an election). It was just damned lucky the Iraqi's have a big pile of oil to sell us.
