“Even if there were legal authority to do so, removing Saddam through military action would require the insertion of ground troops on a massive scale - hundreds of thousands, as the British Chief of the Defence Staff, Sir Charles Guthrie, made clear this morning.

Taken from a speech in Parliament on 17th December, 1998. I ownder what changed?
