What Nadine said: "Second, no one has suggested that Iraq was a conventional threat. The threat was unconventional, it was of assymetrical warfare. You have perhaps heard of terrorism and assymetrical warfare? Iraq doesn't need to be an industrial giant to to be a threat, it only needs motive, means, method and opportunity to try to destroy America's economy any way it could, for instance by training terrorists to set off a dirty bomb in Manhattan. That is the threat we are worried about. Now would you once and for all examine the nature of the actual threat under discussion, and stop knocking down straw men? We no longer live in a world where anybody with less than 10 divisions doesn't need to be worried about." Message 19629259
