TW, you are very much at pains to misread what I write, and the Case Closed article is one familiar to me. What you antis just refuse to wrap your minds around is that Saddam was hooked up with the terror guys -- but didn't himself do 9-11, and we who want to win this understand that. We also understand that Ba'athist Iraq was part of the overall problem we would have to solve. Just as Hitler didn't bomb Pearl Harbor but needed to be defeated, so with Saddam. It is not legitimate to insist that Saddam doesn't parallel Hitler's case: he does. Dictators are more alike than different -- these two even share a penchant for facial hair and uniforms. What to do about dictators is more similar than different case by case also.

While I don't necessarily think US forces will be there at the end, the terrs in Iraq are notable in achieving absolutely nothing now, and will in the end be defeated -- by the rest of Iraq. They have nothing to offer but murders in aid of returning to the previous tyranny. The rest of Iraq isn't interested, and won't allow it.
