Saddam Hussein as a WMD? My perspective on this is that SH can be seen as a WMD. The problem is a lack of focus on the big picture (IMHO). If you want to discuss people as weapons, you must also have a way of gaging what they are destroying, how many of them exist in the world and where they show up in a list of priorities from those with the ability and inclination to do the greater good in the world. What one does to address the problem of a "weapon" such as SH, says a lot about the vision of those trying to solve the problem and the war in Iraq is an excellent example. If there was a genuine motive to save lives by ending tyranny, the US threw out the baby with the bath water by resorting to war. It also causes many to ask if there were ulterior motives. This is especially true now that there is a growing buzz about the coming end of oil as our primary source of fuel. "Blood for oil" (IMO) is an accusation that will become less ambiguous with time. Keeping hidden agendas and going to war to satisfy them is a crime and insults the intelligence of conscientious citizens who see the lives lost and the lies told to cover it up. To "err on the side of life" is a phrase that I hope follows and haunts GWB for the rest of his life. Both foreign and domestic policy in the US are geared toward the building of an empire. The biggest, long term problem facing the US is the fact that some US citizens don't believe that they are part of an empire and those that understand and see the empire, don't realize that it is in decline. All empires rise and fall. Mike
