No need for full war, clean up on the home front first by kicking the UN out and go from there. Syria could be series considered for an immediate a$$ kicking, though.

I knew it! I just knew it!

When their military power is at last broken, (say, like, the day after tomorrow) I hope the first order of business is rooting these Ba'ath bastards out. I want them running and hiding like the vermin they are never getting a moments rest. I want them cocking their ears as they flee listening for the sound of bloodhounds or predators or Marines.

Mitch Albom (WJR am760) had two callers to his show yesterday who were born and raised in Iraq. They both said that there was no way that these people did not know to stop for a check-point. Check points are a way of life in Iraq and it is known that if you do not stop for them, you will be shot.

We need to get that local imam on Al-Jazeera to tell his story. If they won't listen to us they should at least listen to him.

War is a last resort or have you been listening to Daschle too much? We first try things like sanctions, diplomacy, revoking certain privileges and preferences, etc.
