I'll answer your stupid question, if you insist

It remains to be seen if there will be war in Iraq or not. If there is no war, then we will have to look at the details to determine which group had the deterrent effect.

If Saddam caves and flees to a neutral country, then probably the soldiers would have had the major effect that avoided the war.

If Bush caves, and we go to a beefed up inspection / disarmament regime, then probably the protesters would have had the major effect that avoided the war.

I know you want me to choose one or the other, but really I can't decide whether Bush or Saddam is more hard-headed. You have to put me down as undecided.

Since we *will* have war, why are we trying to decide who best promoted peace?

And anyway, what does this have to do with your jingoistic poll?
