    Another consideration was that after watching the Eastern European upheaval of 1989 from the wings, Mr.Bush assumed the mantle of Western leadership in the war against Iraq, and he stands to lose heavily internationally if he shrugged off that mantle and came to be seen once again as a mere bystander.
