Mark Phillips: The American Question

2/9/03: Is there a better way?

Today's Washington Post guest editorial, by Jessica Tuchman Mathews, president of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, makes clear that effective options short of war exist for disarming the Iraqi regime.

Iraqi weapons are the pretext, not the purpose. There will be war in March.
