But it doesn't always happen like that. Israel has fought 4 major wars and
countless smaller batters with the Arabs in the last 55 years and has won
every one, usually by a huge margin, but Arabs are still killing Jews. For
those who want to give reasons why the war might not be a good idea this is
the avenue to explore, forget about Bush's motivation and nonsense like
Saddam's right to remain dictator. I want to know after the war is won will
Iraq fracture into chaos like Yugoslavia did.
