There are a lot of tough questions. Mainly, I'd like to see the U.S. keep alive and under discussion some of the options the administration seems largely to be ignoring at this point. When I try to think through some of the things we've discussed in this thread I tend to arrive at certain fundamental logical or philosophical questions. Rather than continue with them right now I want to think about them for at least a few days, after which I hope to post something raising those questions.


In the meantime, I've been collecting a lot of links. Here's one which I've only skimmed, but which looks like it may contain good general info on Middle East issues.
