I took a very long time before deciding to support the war. It was not an easy decision to come to. Believe me, the question "what if we're wrong" came up more than once. Can we live with the consequences of being wrong?
Ironically, it was the other question that finally decided for me. Can we live with the consequences of being right?
Whatever material evidence there is about Saddam's threat, two things remained clear. His intentions and his stupidity. He was stupid enough to carry out his intentions. This was the man who was stupid enough to attempt to assassinate Bush Sr. 11 Sept opened his eyes to undreamed possibilities of hitting the US. His past performances left me no doubt he would try again. In short, after 11 Sept, Saddam had became an intolerable strategic threat.
