First off, I hate this junk on a technical list. Secondly, I'm registered NO PARTY and I do not subject myself to such blind affliations. Third, I'm amazed at the hypocracy of Bill Clinton who bypassed the UN on so many conflicts, from Somalia to Kosovo. The only difference is that those were smaller conflicts, this is a bigger one. Watch where you throw the term "War Hawk" because it points at as many Democrats as Republicans. Fourth, I like to look outside the US. I have looked at papers from Japan to Saudi Arabia, and anyone who acknowledges the reality of the situation, it is the fault of Saddam Hussein and no one else. Especially the Japanese, who have a constitution forbidding war. Fifth, even Hans Blix says that inspections are useless without the cooperation of Iraq. He has repeatedly stated that there is no way to "inspect compliance" without 100% Iraqi cooperation, and that cooperation has been limited. Lastly, to quote Democrat Senator Joeseph Bidden, "This is not pre-emption, it is enforcement. It is enforment of resolution 876 and the clarification of that resolution in resolution 1441." In a nutshell, the US finally said the ceasefire is over, after 12 years of non-compliance to its terms. Otherwise any future ceasefire will be a joke. -- Bryan J.
