This is unfair for the US has many virtues too. This is not unrealistic but provoked by the ongoing war propaganda and very arogant speech from the US administration. > The United States is reasonably and appropriately concerned about > the safety and security of it's citizens. To suggest that this > concern is somehow immoral or wrong is irresponsible and absurd. Any administration has the duty to care for safety, security and welfare of it's citizens... no question about that. "Always care for number one" But jeopardizing American lives, the American economy, much more lives in the Middle East and the world economy is absurd. Linking Sadam to Bin Laden without proof is absurd. Stating that Sadam is a thread to the US is absurd... even if he should posess weapons of mass destruction. The inspectors are in Iraq to deal with that... they are there to find the weapons and to DESTRUCT them, as they did before. But even if some weapons in Iraq are not found... would those remaining weapons be a thread to the US? Could they be launched undetected and reach the US? NO ! Sadam does not even have the means to launche them to the US. Regards, Bastiaan > Sam Ewalt > Croswell, Michigan, USA > -- Arachne V1.70;rev.3, NON-COMMERCIAL copy, http://arachne.cz/
