In any case how is the following "a crock"
-
" Some have said we must not act until the threat is imminent. Since when have terrorists and tyrants announced their intentions, politely putting us on notice before they strike? If this threat is permitted to fully and suddenly emerge, all actions, all words, and all recriminations would come too late. Trusting in the sanity and restraint of Saddam Hussein is not a strategy, and it is not an option.""


In the past, its the same argument used to justify the largest defense budget on the planet. Now its being used to justify pre emptive war. Next it will be used to justify taking over the world. There is no end to the paranoia.
