<<...Only history will judge the wisdom of the Bush administration's failures in its first nine months in office to deal with al Qaeda and its obsession with Iraq to the exclusion of other, more important threats.

Why do you think Kerry supported unilateral military action to remove Saddam in 1997? Why do you think Congress passed the Iraq Liberation Act in 1998? And why did the Clinton administration try to get rid of Saddam then? Posted by Jake Straw on this thread: Kerry, in 1997, actually supported unilateral military operations to unseat Saddam Hussein in Iraq. Appearing on CNN's "Crossfire," on Nov. 12, 1997, the great internationalist even declared that the same UN approval he now preaches for on campaign stops wouldn't be necessary for then-President Bill Clinton to launce an offensive against Saddam's regime. "The administration is making it clear they don't even need the UN security council to sign off on a material breach...so furthermore, I think the United States has always reserved the right and will reserve the right to act in its best interests." He went on to criticize Germany, France, and Russia, asking where their "backbone" was in standing against Hussein. opinioneditorials.com Message 19947653
