I feel that your painting of the administration as “bully boys” is misguided and oversimplified. What you seemingly fail to recognize is that regardless of whether or not we forcibly remove the regime in Iraq, the U.S. will still be targeted for terrorist attacks. If we don’t run Saddam and his minions to ground, it will be viewed as a major sign of weakness by our enemies, and enhearten them to greater effort.
As we will remain Israel’s ally, we will continue to be categorized as anti-Muslim and a holy target by those who would eradicate us just as they would the Jews. Damned if we do — yes, but as long as we are the preeminant power on earth, such will always be the case.
