While I agree we should nip the situation in the bud now, there are other options to stopping Sadaam from building Weapons of Mass Destruction besides war. How about some legit inspections for instance, instead of the half assed one they had before?
Do you think inspections could actually accomplish anything? You have what... 20, 30 inspectors? Maybe less? They are supposed to know everything that goes on in a country? Let's be realistic.. If Saddam wanted to hide something from them it wouldn't be all that hard. And there is PROOF that he has in the past.

There are many UN resolutions that he's already broken. Why does anyone think he'd take another seriously? Usually we'd know not to trust someone after breaking their promises once or twice.. but I understand it's somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 times he's blatently disobeyed the UN?

It's simply unrealistic to conclude that inspections or anything short of regime change is really going to accomplish a whole hell of a lot.
