Clinton's lack in Iraq was simply not enforcing the weapons
inspections.....once Saddam limited the inspections or would not allow the
weapon inspectors return he was non compliant with the agreed upon
terms.....a suitable response on Clinton's part was not forthcoming....a
contract without enforcement is worth less than the paper it is written on.
Allowing the "bad guys" to do as they will is not a modest response nor
exceptional statesmenship but rather simply letting others in the future fix
"your" problem or do the job you should have done....Soggy.
