Nadine - I'd like to thank you for posting the Krauthammer speech a few days ago on the PfP thread. It really is excellent - well written, abundantly rich with insights... very gratifying. His overview of the entire political spectrum is fascinating. Even people whom he strongly opposes get treated with understanding and respect. Enjoyed it - and will read it again. aei.org

<<France and Russia, on the other hand, staked out an opposing position, where Saddam's success was their success.>> But don't you see Nadine that this was exactly our position when we supported Saddam in the 80's.....that is the point I'm trying to make here. My argument is not to put the French/Russian positions in a better light than ours but rather to point out that we have behaved similarly in the past. The Iraqis are so much better off today than they were under Saddam but that is not the reason we invaded. MON.
