http://www.snopes.com/politics/quotes/gulfwar.aspI am sure that you are correct. Taking any action will have consequences, which we have to weigh. Is this or that acceptable? Had we gotten rid of SH during the Gulf War, then the world might look very different. We would have lost support from many countries but that is where we are today. This could have been resolved in 1990 instead of being with us today.
I like the part, "If only his son could read". I think the problem is deeper. If only his son could think intelligently and with compassion.
