Much of the touted rationale for going to war against Iraq is laughable. Personally, there's a lot of other countries I see as a greater threat to the west than Iraq. Iraq is secular. Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, et al, are not.

However....The bottom line is that:

After losing the 1991 Persian Gulf War, Iraq promised to destroy its weapons of "mass destruction." The inspectors' job is to make sure Iraq keeps its word. Over the past 13 years, Saddam has been playing a cat-and-mouse game with the inspectors and the world, even expelling inspectors. If he really has nothing to hide wouldn't it make sense for him to open his kimino, cooperate and allow inspections to go on unobstructed? Wouldn't it be in his interest to once and for all prove he doesn't have WMDs by offering his full cooperation?

If inspections haven't worked for 13 years, what makes us think they'll work now? How long should we allow this cat and mouse game to go on? If force isn't the answer, than what is?
