We took his nation over - big difference.

We took his nation through siege 12 years ago. There is no Gulf War One and Gulf War Two. It's one war and we're working to end it now.

Despite my anti neo-con leanings I am pro war. Iraq is partly a neocon scheme. So in that regards I think Pat has it half way right. Powell is not a neocon and does not like them much either. Going to take out Iraq is not a neocon issue only, it is a classical conservative one as well. In Iraq both neocon and classic conservative views meet up policy wise.

When will the neocons be a problem? Well I think it is when they use Iraq to stage their agenda into Syria and into Iran and beyond. That is why the neocons wanted to go into Iraq-as a staging ground to change the Middle East - by force if need be. But classical conservatives feel the need only to go into Iraq. Fix Iraq and go home. THAT is what neocons do not want and that is where the tug of war is for Bush's attention.
