Although I have not been able to find any actual documentation of Clinton or any of his staff out right saying they had plans of an invasion (since that would most likely be classified information). Everything I have found simply talks about keeping Saddam in a "box". One could argue that had the opportunity arose the Clinton administration would have invaded and yes this is debatable. And argued and discussed as much as some say that 9/11 or Pearl Harbor where not caused by Terrorist or Japan respectively, I use this to make an example that is all. |
Discussing something and actually planning a contingency are
NOT the same. Was invasion discussed ... it's possible .....
BUT .... at no time did Clinton and his advisers even entertain the probability that an invasion needed to be contemplated. The
ONLY thing that seemed to occupy Clinton and advisers, was trying to "keep Saddam in his box" as you put it.
