War With Iraq

So let me get this straight. Our new foreign policy should be one of "the world's isolationist policeman". You quote Mike Savage's philosophy of "border, language, culture" which, I think you (or anyone) could agree is about as isolationist as one can get. On the other hand we support the "factual evidence of the Iraqi/al queda threat" presented by Sec. Powell today at the UN. Threat to who? Our "border, language, and culture"? Do we really feel threatened by Iraq? I don't. In my opinion, they are more dangerous to our position without a direct threat. This problem woud be easy with a "smoking gun." "There is no smoking gun." In fact, these are the exact words of the administration.

Unfortunately, the Bush administration has maeauvered themselves into a position where the war is inevitable. The war will come and we will "win".

A "war" with Iraq is justified but NOT if you embrace ...
