Sorry, again, I don't buy it.

I don't know why Buchanan has his head in the sand vis-a-vis foreign policy. Saddam Hussein is a MALIGNANT CANCER who has to be taken down sooner, rather than later. The same deal was the case with the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, and I could probably think of a few more places where we need to take a stand now.

A fair bit of our policy since World War II was not playing favorites, it was stopping things before they got to World War III, or it was standing up for what was RIGHT. Pat Buchanan's way is no better than "non-judgemental" liberalism applied to international affairs.

We didn't attack the Soviet union. We allied with them though Stalin murdered millions more in his concentration camps than Hitler did! Two nations attacked Poland in September 1939 but the West declared war only on one of them. America was still doing business with Hitler as London was being carpet bombed. Chamberlain had the guts to declare war on germany. We waited till Germany declared war on us.
