Haven't we learned from Wilson's "Yugoslavia"?

Haven't *you* learned from Chamberlain's Munich?

Sorry- I must have my histroy mixed up. Chamberlain gave Hitler carte blanche to take the Czechs out- or at least the German areas of the czech lands in exchange that he stop further aggression. We are talking about toppling a guy we booted out of Kuwait 12 years ago and have no intention of letting him invade anyone else. We are talking about invading him because of what he "might do"- and nothing more. Your comparison to chamberlain is a stretch to be charitable.
