Re: The War in Iraq is already a success
Qaddafi renouncing of WMD is significant becuase, although he had no credible delivery capability, he did have had stockpiles of exactly the sort of chemical, biological and low/medium grade nuclear material we didn't want to fall into the hands of terrorists. The very same terrorists he has also stopped sponsoring and supporting in fact.
Where Gamblor is wrong is linking this to Iraq and Bush. Libya has changed its ways as a result of diplomatic and economic pressure in a process that has been going on for years -- indeed it really started with Libya giving up the Lockerbie suspects which has been going on for at leat 5 years. In fact the process that has occured in Libiya is much closer to the European model for dealing with state sponsored terrorism. Whcih was also Clinton's approach (which did include bobmbing them of course) so by extension you can argue that if anything Libiya supports Kerry's policy approach rather than Bush's. |
