So, Mr. Buchanan. Instead of whining, give us a better solution. I'm sick of people complaining and not offering a better perspective or solution. People who can't offer a solution are just offering an agenda. And agendas don't do anything for our people in this time of need.

I'll give you a better solution. Keep Saddam contained and focus our efforts on destroying Al Qaeda cells.

To me they are one in the same. After all, Saddham did have a Boeing Commercial Airline Fuselage in Baghdad and had Al Qaeda operatives, including Mohammad Atta, actively training and using the fuselage to prepare for the attacks in America. This....is evidence that sleeper cells use and exist in Iraq.

Plus, I'm sure the advent of nuclear capabilities has a lot to do with "when" we will actually take to their soil. This, of course, is not public knowledge and probably will never be more than speculation.

I think I understand your fanatic defense of buchanan now. You were obviously in the same staff war college as he and Saddam. Your grasp of the situation is startling foggy.

Perhaps one day you will finally understand why buchanan, advisor to presidents, never rose above speech writer.

Those who are blinded by Pat-hate just can't see this obvious solution. It seems that those who advocate for American interests in the Near East are, by their definition, anti-Semitic.

We have used containment on much more dangerous countries than Iraq. Pat was right, foreign entanglements will bring war to our shores. BTW Pat was not for going to war for Taiwan or in Kosovo either which makes him anti-something-or-other too.
