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.
Saddam uses terrorism to extend his reach and influence. He isn't a fool, therefore he doesn't send little cards that say "I, Saddam, personally ordered this terrorist attack."
The whole point of his using terrorism is DENIABILITY. The connections Powell and others have made are quite clear enough for me. By the way, what do you call sending operatives into Saudi Arabia to assassinate the elder President Bush? It seems to me that THAT would indicate Saddam's intentions, and they aren't peaceful.
No, we're talking about: Appeasement.
Sheesh. My comparison to Chamberlain is a stretch? They programmed you well. ;-)
