Sorry, Peter. I thought you were saying it's a stupid question because it's a given that the US is going to war. You just said the thread should be "should we go to war." There's a thread on that, but I don't know if it was started after this one or before. I think most, if not all, of the discussion about the war (and a bunch of politic threads in general) is focused on "should we." I simply thought there was room here for a different sort of question.
