Some have more sophisticated views, but not many. As evidenced in this blog, just try to get anti-war folks to admit that one of the detriments of their position is leaving a psychopathic thug in power (hint: it's not easy). Many obstinately refuse to even acknowledge that the "peace" they argue for is most likely as ugly and brutish as a war might be. Yesterday Andrew Sullivan referenced this eye-witness account of human beings put through an industrial plastic shredder in Iraq. You might reasonably argue that the horrors of war would outstrip the current horrors of Saddam's existing regime. But it is morally-bankrupt lunacy to deny that those horrors currently exist and that a consequence of your position is to leave them in place.
