(2003-01-30) Friedman On War On Iraq

Thomas Friedman supports War On Iraq as a first step. Although President George W Bush has cast the war in Iraq as being about disarmament - and that is legitimate - disarmament is not the most important prize there. Regime Change is the prize... This is something liberals should care about - because liberating the captive peoples of the Middle East is a virtue in itself and because in today's globalized world, if you don't visit a bad neighborhood, it will visit you.
