It's completely wrong to bomb Iraq. Their nukes, apparently, are "weapons", but the USA's are "defensive". I'm not sure what the USA is thinking to go to war without the UN's support. Plus, it's mere assumption that Iraq will be bombing us with them. By going in, it's mere folly and could THEN result in us getting retaliated upon. This is kinda like the Athenian/Melian debate recorded by Thucydides a looong time ago. Athens wanted Melos without considering anything. That's the gist of it. The Athenians won, but unlike back then, the USA's size doesn't matter. A few nukes'll screw everyone up. I don't see how the president would even consider this (or Tony Blair). His Texan Drill in Alaska! theory really should not even be in the friggin White House. If he even considers running next election, he might as well throw his Republican soft money down his... drain. Btw, check out the lyrics to the song I'm listening to right now (A New Kind of Army - Anti Flag).
