still waiting for you to give us the solution to Iran and North Korea.

I never am for war, show me where I think war is a good and positive 
thing that should be done for no reason.

I guess you missed the news about the former Iraqi air force general 
that said he personally saw a bunch of WMD being moved to Syria in 
commercial airlines that the seats had been removed, and that Iraq 
had and used WMD multiple times.  I don't see how you keep missing 
that, or understanding that when one party breaks the terms of a 
cease fire with warnings for 10 years, that the terms of the cease 
fire cease and hostilities resume.
