In case you can't tell from my posts, I think the world should be in Iraq removing Hussein from power, primarily because of his connections with terrorist organizations, his fomenting of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and his failure to control some regions near the Iranian border — that last calls for either the Pakistan solution, where the government does its best and invites American help, or the Afghanistan solution, which always seemed to be what was most likely to work here. The concerns I do have with current action is that it's being done on a {Greek for forty-five}-lateral basis, with less support than it should have internationally. The Volokh piece that I critiqued the other day mitigates much of my concern stemming from that, and if we were going to win over Germany and France, they would first be serious about supporting other serious efforts to do this in a less military way. I do think it best that the problem be dealt with eventually, and "diplomacy" sounds more and more like "let it fester." |
