But there is a subset of the "war" option: essentially unilateral US war, or UN-sanctioned military action/war (with the US of course being the major player). I think I already wrote this, so apologies if a repeat: all of the people I know who are against unilateral US action (well, unless a 'smoking gun' showed Saddam connected with the Tower bombing) support UN-sanctioned action. Reasons include physical support by other nations for rebuilding Iraq, and the appearance of a 'world decision' rather than 'US bullying.'
