I just got a chain e-mail from a misguided friend with a link to the silly Win Without War group. It was disappointing to find out that this friend is against the war, so I was happy and a little comforted to see a parody of the group on ScrappleFace: 'Win Without War' Releases New Talking Points.
3. We can't control war. Experts warn that an attack on Iraq could seriously undermine and destabilize regimes in the region, upsetting monarchs and dictators who also don't like us.
4. What happens after war? Are we prepared to occupy Iraq for years to come? Think of how long it will take just to de-toxify the WMD landfills, and to give medical treatment to the Iraqi people who have been exposed to chemical and biological agents. Then there's the trials for crimes against humanity. We don't have time for all that.
7. Young Americans will die in battle...War should be the very last resort. First we should pass at least 18 resolutions in the U.N. Security Council, spend almost a year trying to build an international coalition to pressure Saddam to disarm, and continue to take no action even if he doesn't comply with our U.N. resolutions.
Here's a good post about this at LGF
