A View to a Kill: Assassination in war and peace
National Review, March 11, 2002 by Richard Lowry
"Rogue state" isn't just an idle phrase. It signifies a government that is operating outside of all civilized bounds. The U.S. now seems to be willing, not just to recognize this fact rhetorically, but to act on it with a policy of regime-change -- which makes it very odd that we would insist on maintaining the polite norms of long ago, when every sovereign was a sort of brother.
Saddam Hussein is a far cry from William Pitt. It is time we stop pretending otherwise.
