[Vision2020] Media Watch

[Carl Westberg]

What action indeed?  I heard a report on NPR a few weeks ago that counted a 
total of 96 different opposition groups in Iraq, none of whom evidently get 
along with each other.  We attack Iraq, unseat Saddam, ratcheting up Middle 
East hatred of the United States, quite possibly increasing rather than 
decreasing the threat of terrorism, and replace Saddam with....who?  Oh, and 
by the way, North Korea continues to stick its finger in our eye.  To quote 
from this morning's New York Times op-ed page, the character of America is 
at issue as much as its military might.  To risk global catastrophe without 
proper international support would not speak well of that character.         
                                                                             
                                                    Carl Westberg Jr.
