Yes, LJ.
It's fear that leads to war and chaos, total chaos.
Chaos means freedom but also freedom for whoever to go after anybody they want.
It's fear dictators rest their powers on.
No democracy is possible in Iraq if fear runs the country instead of trust or rather if fear dominates trust.

        You can make a case that we should have feared Saddams WMDs and terrorism prior to the war - alcaray - 9/23/2004 9:49:57 PM
