Anyone who so forcefully advocated for and defends the illegal invasion of Iraq simply lacks credibility.Dr. Pipes, you either have no sense of the limitations of conventional military power or you are simply unmoved by the misery and bloodshed that our foreign policy has brought to the Middle East and the US for generations. I urge you to stop underestimating the power and efficacy of respecting international law as a means of ending this war on terror and marginalizing terrorists and other militant factions worldwide. Another war will only resign us to another generation of terror returned to us on our shores.
