What better way to validate “might makes right” than by invading Iraq? In ignoring international opinion, not to mention international law and institutions, the United States is just one of many states that become vulnerable to groups and countries committed to “regime change” for reasons that are compelling only to them.

I refuse to support a war manufactured by privileged men who have made no sacrifice in service to their country, and in fact may well have benefited from governmental contacts. Instead, I’ll trust the judgment of military leaders such as General Schwartzkopf, and General Clarke whose understanding of all aspects of war propel them to advocate slowing down the rush to invade.
