-- "In any country there must be people who have to die. They are the sacrifices any nation has to make to achieve law & order." - Idi Dada Amin "Trying to eliminate Saddam, extending the ground war into an occupation of Iraq, would have violated our guideline about not changing objectives in midstream. .and would have incurred incalculable human and political costs. .We would have been forced to occupy Baghdad and, in effect rule Iraq. .There was no viable 'exit strategy' we could see. .Going in and occupying Iraq, thus unilaterally exceeding the United Nations' mandate, would have destroyed the precedent of international response to aggression that we hoped to establish. Had we gone the invasion route, the United States could conceivably still be an occupying power in a bitterly hostile land. It would have been a dramatically different -- and perhaps barren -- outcome." - Elected President Bush "Bob Adkins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > On Sun, 23 Nov 2003 21:17:07 GMT, William Cook <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > > >Your claim is false.

That is the first time I have ever heard anyone attempt to use those two concepts in the same sentence (even if you do use a pronoun). Since when is posting random Googled URLs considered proof? Dan
