Retrospective war poem... Found Object.

"As long as we are alert and observant Saddam Hussein is not a threat to his neighbours. He's a nuisance, he's an annoyance but he's not a threat. That we achieved. It was never our objective to get Saddam Hussein. Indeed, had we tried we still might be occupying Baghdad. That would have turned a great success into a very messy, probable defeat."

—Brent Scowcroft. National Security Advisor to President George Bush Snr.
Interviewed in 1996.
