Perhaps.  For those who limit their thinking to the short term.  With 
the consequences being that thereafter Iraq - known to have made a 
deal with North Korea for the purchase of missiles and being assisted 
in nuclear technology by Russia - would have the wherewithall to 
blackmail the world just as North Korea has done successfully.  (Is it 
just us, but are not the first two sentences of the response 
immediately preceeding totally contradictory?)
