. . . yes, and here we are. We'll meet here again, too.

War is far from merely the "last resort", Raoul. I think you know this, no matter how much you choose to deny it. Often, war is merely an inevitable consequence of events.

For more than a decade, Hussein & Co. demanded war, and demanded it against his neighbors, against Israel, against Turkey, and against anything Western. We finally obliged him. Nothing more.
