Voices against the war (October 2002) :

Rep. John Spratt:

...the outcome after the conflict is actually going to be the hardest part, and it is far less certain.

Rep. Ike Skelton:

I have no doubt that our military would decisively defeat Iraq's forces and remove Saddam. But like the proverbial dog chasing the car down the road, we must consider what we would do after we caught it.

...the extreme difficulty of occupying Iraq with its history of autocratic rule, its balkanized ethnic tensions and its isolated economic system.

Rep. Barbara Lee:

Our own intelligence agencies report that there is currently little chance of chemical and biological attack from Saddam Hussein on U.S. forces or territories. [...]

What is our objective here, regime change or elimination of weapons of mass destruction?

Rep. Tammy Baldwin:

Are we prepared to keep 100,000 or more troops in Iraq to maintain stability there? If we don't, will a new regime emerge? If we don't, will Iran become the dominant power in the Middle East? . . . If we don't, will Islamic fundamentalists take over Iraq?

Well. Well. Well...
