If it was working, explain co-president Hillary's quote from 10-2002.....

Exactly, so what is the balancing test on the costs, i.e. the cost of containment included WTC II. At what point is the cost of the current battle front in Iraq less than a series of WTCs? W took action to prevent more WTCs, a well taken calculated risk. As I have said, I expected it to take 5-10 years, as I imagine any thoughtful person looking at the totality of the circumstances would (especially given that 60 years later we still have to occupy Weurope with more troops than are in Iraq to ensure stability there). When all is said and done, I think the RoI on Iraq will be good.
