So let me get this straight.  It wrong to do something to stop Saddam's insanity and perhaps save hundreds, if not thousands, of lives.  But it's OK to let him continue killing, maiming, threatening, murdering, etc. etc.

SNA in AK said that there will need to be more tragedies like Sept. 11 before the World Court decides to do anything.  How many more innocent people need to lose their lives before we (US, UK, etc) decides enough is enough?

I am not partiuclarly in favor of a war.  I have one son already who is serving in the US Navy and ever since 9/11 we never know where he is or when he will be back into his home port.  

I also havetwo grandsons who are old enought to serve or near enough to not be comfortable about them being called up to serve.  Consequently, I am not in favor or a war.

On the other hand, another tragedy like 9/11 and I just might volunteer myself - even at my age.
