2 questions we need to ask and answer before war with Iraq.
1. Does Iraq have nuclear weaponry, or are they close to developing nuclear weapons?
2. Will Iraq use them on the Americans or the allies of the US?
Both 1 and 2 must be true in order to justify war.
I don't buy your argument that a 'threat' constitutes the complete destruction the United States, I'd prefer to avoid a nuclear strike on the US if possible.
Is the highest motivation of Hussein to survive? Is this motivation greater than a desire for revenge? I don't know, but the question is not as cut and dried as you have put. Would he nuke Israel given the opportunity and the ability?

i think that, to his credit, ben was never a supporter of the war. (i could be wrong on this however)"The Christian way has not been tried and found wanting, it has been found to be hard and left untried" - GK Chesterton.

This thrade meets my approval.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

I also bought into idea the Iraq war was a good idea but I have an excuse. I was a dumb 18 year old kid in 2003. That period from 9/11 to the moment people realized there were no WMDs and Saddam was not allied with Bin Laden are what I like to call the Patriotard Years.
Yes, I was once a patriotard.Last edited by Riesstiu IV; December 2, 2010, 19:22.

The Iraq war was a good idea, it was just poorly executed.
