| Bush must go for it |
| 2003-02-26 |
| This article from Stratfor suggests that the US must go to war, regardless of what happens. The reasons provided are practical and compelling. Fundamentally, the attack on Iraq is a necessary first step in an approach to dealing with al Quaeda- and there is no other option on the table to deal with that organization. Bush must go forward. |

| #4 My position at the Security Council is this: A resolution with a (short) ultimatum.. lets say March 20. Then I want a clear message from Blix, a yes and no, whether Iraq has fully and unconditionally cooperated. I don't need a Blix speech, just a yes or no to this question. And unless I hear a clear yes (without any buts) I'd vote for immediate military action. I've seen the German Foreign Minister on television yesterday and I couldn't stand his wobbling anymore, his refusal to answer clear questions. With a better strategy on both sides of the Atlantic we could have avoided all this mess. Now we just need to make the best out of it. I'd still be happier if Saddam fully disarmed. But either the knife at his throat isn't sharp enough or he doesn't know what a knife is. He'd better find out fast. Btw I never questioned the action against Afghanistan. |

| #2 I just came across the Pearl Video on this site. I downloaded it. Waited. Then watched it. The word "islamofascist" makes sense to me now. Although "islamonazist" makes even more. Goebbels would have been proud. It's not so much the violence. You'll see worse in a horror movie. But it is infamy condensed in three minutes. And it compels you to take sides. There is no abstaining. Not here. And not in the Security Council. |

| #1 Yeah Iraq must go. The status quo in the Mid East is not in our interest. Once we conquer Iraq we will have a position of great strength. The other Mid East nations will have to reform or face the consequences... |
