My apologies if I misunderstood you - but I'm not talking about appeasing them either. I doubt that anyone will describe the aftermath of another gulf war as a time of peace.
I just believe that there are other, more subtle ways of ridding the world of Saddam than by invading and stirring up a hornets nest.
I suppose when you command the greatest army in the world then the urge to use it is almost irresistable. In this situation though sounding the charge is the last thing George should be doing.

i dont beleive that you really believe there are "other ways" to get rid of Saddam Hussein. what would those be? more sanctions? alienating Iraq? more UN Resolutions? its all been done. its all failed. thats why we have the situation today.
its easier to criticise proposed solutions than it is to present a proposal and defend it against the scrutiny of the masses and world opinion.
i respect peoples dissagreement with attacking Saddam Hussein and concerns with the day after. but to say "i am categorically against it" and not be able to state in clear terms what you propose as a better course of action, or what course of action you would support 100% - does not exactly make for a better arguement.
what "subtle ways of ridding the world of Saddam Hussein" would you support? how would it be subtle?
