He vacillated in the face of evil, tried to placate it."""

Fine, but I don't vacilate on the Iraq invasion. I have always thought it was a mistake - - not because I believed in placating Saddam, but because I believed and believe he wasn't an imminent threat. Hitler, obviously WAS a threat when Neville tried to placate him. Hitler was already occupying neighboring territory and he had a massive and threatening military. Saddam, in contrast, was contained by an aggressive sanctions program, and constant military flyovers, and he had no military to speak of.
