Serge, wrong, I am all for engagement - but that doesn't mean all out war without any real backup. Yes, I know, the coalition of the willing - which was a nice way of saying "The US military and anyone else we could find to lend us 10 troops and a jeep". Very few of the major players from Gulf War I were back this time.
Without the fudged proof of WMD, it would have probably been the US all alone.
My question always is this: Why is Iraq different from North Korea, different from Lybia, different from Iran, etc? I don't see where NK's actual nuclear weapons are less of a threat than Saddam MAYBE having WMDs... I just don't get the logic.
Then again, I ain't a repulican... maybe it's something you understand once you get the magic decoder ring.
