What a confused jumble of an article...pitiful. Oh, didn't we have last week an article from Britain on supposed Israeli involvement in the attack on Iraq?

The administration has not announced precisely why Cheney is going to the middle East. One can hypothesize that he is going to gain support from potential allies. Anything beyond that is purely hypothetical and without any official announcement. The authors story sound like a tale concocted purely via his vivid imagination or wishful thinking. The article is tripe.

The Broder article raises a lot of questions (and, at least for me) leaves a lot of the more important ones unanswered. I keep reading about the urgent need to attack Iraq but I still don't understand the reasons why.
Is Iraq a greater threat to us than China? If not, why don't we first attack China? She's the one with thermonuclear weapons and independently targeted re-entry vehicles. Compared to China, Iraq has diddlysquat nuclear capablity and no means to deliver a warhead anyway.
Also what is the legal basis for Bush's authority to attack Iraq? Isn't he supposed to ask congress to declare war first? Why isn't congress debating the issue? Is it the administration's position that it doesn't need congressional authorization? If so, are there any limits at all on the president's authority to go to war with anyone at any time?
I don't necessarily oppose a war with Iraq, but I sure oppose one where the reasons aren't spelled out, where the matter isn't publicly debated and where congress hasn't given its formal approval.
