    Then you can be happy you have Bush and his chickenhawks in gvt; they have big plans on how to improve the safety of the world ... err ... the US first of all.

    In an "american century" - is there place for other countries in a role other than a vassal's? Hardly. And as the world knows that conflict is preprogrammed.

    Besides, Max Boot is a saxophone for PNAC, founded by ultra-con William Krystol, where Perle, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and Cheneya are keen supporters (bottom of page). You can expect Boot to reflect their points of view.

    The mass destruction weapons are simply an easier way to kill without the unpleasant effect of seeing the other one die. Surely no nation should have them but in this less than perfect world some nations feel threatened and decide to put something in their arsenal in order to keep invaders away. I believe that this principle gives the same exact right to anyone to have WMD and the rest of these attrocities. I mean that if we rely on the fear of destruction in order to have peace then if everyone has mass destruction weapons then there would be no war; I don't think that this is a sane solution but this is an insane world.
