By what measurement can we assert that Saddam has been persuaded to treat his people humanely. that he has been compelled to abide by U.N. resolutions and the terms of the ceasefire agreement. that the containment of Iraq has been further advanced. and that the United States and our allies are strategically better off since we fired 44 cruise missiles at Iraqi air defense systems in the south? Since those strikes. Saddams Kurdish allies have achieved a complete victory in the north. and Saddam has regained control of an area from which he has been excluded for several years. Kurdish refugees are again flooding across the border. Saddam. In utter contempt for U.S. warnings. has begun repairing the radar sites we struck last week.
