You should have a plan ready for every conceivable scenerio, and the resources ready to back up whatever action is necessary. Just saying "no one knows what will happen" is unacceptable

In theory thats nice, but it just isnt the way life is.
I actually agree to alot of what you say, like I have said, you dont know my opinion on the war, but I wont agree that anyone goes into a war on such scale and complexity as this one and can imagine what is going to be at the other end. Life just isnt like that. If you look back on what all the things that could have happened, thinking we would know what is going to happen is madness. We often forget what goes on and only remember the larger picture. This conflict could have turned out in so many different ways. Infact I think that the way it has turned out is probably how the US admin thought it would. But they are not going to say that because it would be to unpopular.
You also have to remember that here in the U.K we have a different opinion on the war, for me the choice wasnt only whether the war was right or wrong. The choice for me (and us as a country at whole) was wheather we should go along with the USA even if they may have been wrong. This is where it differs for us, because I belive like many others here in the U.K that we had and still have a moral obligation to the U.S and that we should stand by their side at this time.
So infact we had two reasons for going to war. The first was the sadam/weapons issue what isnt black or white and we could argue all day about it. The second for me was black or white. We was right and still are right to stand by the U.S who in the past have stood by us.
