I guess we made the problem, so we are cleaning it up now.
As far as why we are attacking right NOW, I don't have that answer. I wonder why NOW was the time. However, I have more faith in the US gubmint than the United Nations. Interesting times are ahead. What I do know is that our enemies do not abide by past rules of war. Perhaps this requires a proactive offense to promote good defense. I'm just guessing...
