Some other questions for those opposed to the war in Iraq

from this article on OpinionJournal.com:

Peace is important, but is peace without freedom acceptable?



If you believe peace is paramount, which of the following wars would you not have fought:



• The Gulf War of 1991, which liberated Kuwait from Iraqi invasion and terrorism?
• World War II against Nazi Germany?
• The American Revolutionary War?
• The Civil War?
• The Korean War?
• The war that freed Afghanistan from the Taliban?

Why will appeasement succeed with Saddam Hussein when it has failed with so many other dictators?



May the United States take action to prevent attacks--before they occur--on its territory or people?

If not America, who? If not now, when?

Finally, Abraham Lincoln said there was no middle ground between freedom and slavery. Can there be a middle ground between freedom and terrorism?
