What madness has gripped the Village?(and some here as well?)
Let's be clear what we're talking about here: a country that is half-way across the planet, running on a second-world economy and defended by a military that can't project power beyond its borders.
Said country may or may not be pursuing the development of nuclear technology, which may or may not be dual-use and therefore may or may not be used to produce nuclear weapons.
Said country has no modern history of invading its neighbors and, to date, shows no signs it can credibly threaten anyone (despite the scary stuff its powerless figurehead of a President tends to say).
Oh, it might, someday develop its ballistic missile technology and arsenal to where it could - maybe, someday - be able to lob a primitive missile into the general direction of Europe. Maybe.
Yet, this is a country that presents such an immediate and dire threat to our homeland President Bush has a moral imperative to attack and destroy this country?
Is that a fair summation of this insanity, because there's really no other word to describe it?
