Brent Scowcroft “Don’t Attack Saddam”

April 18, 2022 By Richard C. Young

USAF Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Brent Scowcroft (left) makes remarks during a dedication ceremony in his honor at the National Defense University’s National War College on Fort Lesley J. McNair, Washington, D.C., Jan. 13, 2015. NDU hosted a ceremony to officially dedicate room 350 of Roosevelt Hall in honor of Scowcroft. Gen. Dempsey attended the ceremony as a guest speaker.

In March of 2015, Jordan Michael Smith wrote in The American Conservative:

Any notion of Scowcroft (Brent) as merely a bland bureaucrat evaporated instantly with the publication of an op-ed he wrote for the Wall Street Journal in August 2002. Headlined “Don’t Attack Saddam,” the column stated that the Iraqi dictator had nothing to with the 9/11 hijackers, his aims were at odds with the terrorists’, he would never hand over weapons of mass destruction to outside groups, an occupation of Iraq would be bloody and costly for America, and such a war would be a diversion from the war on terrorism.

In the article (linked here), you will discover why foreign policy adviser Brent Scowcroft will go down as one of the most important Americans ever to advise a U.S. president.
