	Spinsanity - Sorting out the "imminent threat" debate
		Legal scholars and international jurists often conditioned the legitimacy of preemption on the existence of an imminent threat-most often a visible mobilization of armies, navies, and air forces preparing to attack.
		It instead contends that the legal concept "imminent threat" embodies should be expanded to allow action against threatening "rogue states" and terrorists even when there is not direct evidence that they are mobilizing forces for an attack.
		However, many liberal critics have ignored this evidence and misinterpreted the meaning of the word "imminent" to argue that the Bush administration made a case that Iraq was an imminent threat, even if it never said the words.

		The hope of an imminent coming of the exalted Lord in Messianic glory is, however, so much to the fore that in the NT the terms are never used for the coming of Christ in the flesh.
		Fortunately, the imminent hope of His coming was kept alive among those evangelicals who took the Bible literally and had pastor shepherds who faithfully taught it to them.

		In their attempt to deceive us about Saddam Hussein, they inadvertently made consistent and accurate claims that we were all facing immediate and real threats to our wellbeing.
		The imminent dangers to our well being are not being addressed because of the priorities of the Bush administration.
		But preying on our fears must not be the manipulative device used to ignore the internal imminent threats we face as Americans, and to which this administration is a major contributing factor.

	R.H. Boll on Christ's premillennial and imminent coming
		By "imminent" I mean impending in the sense of being always liable to occur; not that it is necessarily going to take place immediately, but that, so far as we can know, it may happen at any time.
		My respondent says that the words "premillennial" and "imminent" are not in the Bible, nor their synonyms, and concludes, therefore, that they do not stand for Bible ideas.
		The coming of Christ is imminent, because it is certain; but the time is unknown, and we are charged to watch and pray always, and to be ready, for we know not when our Lord cometh.

	danieldrezner.com :: Daniel W. Drezner :: The post-war debate about the pre-war rhetoric -- the final chapter!!
		From the very beginning, questions of imminent threat were used by opponents of the war, because everyone understood that an imminent threat threshold was too high to justify a war against Iraq.
		The "imminent threat" to which McClellan was referring was to Turkey, not to the United States, as developed in the very particular context (in February '03 amidst the closing "window of diplomatic opportunity") of the run-up to then imminent war.
		There is no reason to think that "imminent" was used with any more precision than "immediate," "growing," etc., and even if it was, meaning has more to do with what you can reasonably expect listeners to understand words to mean than what you may or may not privately stipulate their meanings to be.

	Shark Blog: A Brief History of The Imminent Threat Canard
		The administration was criticized before the war for not making a case that Iraq was an imminent threat, denied at that time that war was based on the supposition of an imminent threat, and was criticized after the war for having lied that Iraq was an imminent threat.
		However, the phrase "imminent threat" was not made up by the left, or Democrats, or journalists; it has it roots in a document created, promoted, and cited by this administration.
		The reason bush and his administration were tiptoeing around the term "imminent threat" is there was no way to be absolutely positive of the true nature of the threat.

	Spinsanity - Countering rhetoric with reason
		McClellan was arguing that in the case of a war with Iraq, Turkey would face an imminent threat from its neighbor.
		He was not saying that Iraq posed an imminent threat to Turkey at the time, let alone that Iraq posed an imminent threat to the US.
		But as we have shown, the Bush administration generally made a case for war that described Iraq as a "grave" threat but not one that was necessarily imminent; the accuracy of its descriptions of the nature and extent of that threat are a separate issue.

	Perhaps today: The Imminent coming ofChrist
		As soon as a person sets a date for an imminent event he destroys the concept of imminency, because he thereby is saying that a certain amount of time must transpire before that event can happen.
		The fact that Christ could return, but may not soon, at any moment, yet without the necessity of signs preceeding His return requires the kind of imminence taught by the pre-trib position and is a strong support for pretribulationism.
		This is why believers are waiting for a person-Jesus Christ-not an event or series of events such as those related to the tribulation leading up to Christ's second advent in which He returns to the earth and remins for His millennial reign.

		To call something an imminent threat means that the blow could come at any moment and that any delay in confronting it risks disaster.
		But here the president isn’t ruling out an “imminent threat,” but rather just bending the concept out of all recognition by arguing that the threat will be “imminent” only when we get a formal warning from the potential attackers.

	Tim Blair: MYTHUNDERSTOOD
		No mention of how Rockefeller’s “imminent threat” claim was instantly shot down, or that Rockefeller himself had previously said: “Saddam's existing biological and chemical weapons capabilities pose a very real threat to America now.” The Bush “imminent threat” myth -- repeatedly exposed by Andrew Sullivan -- just gets stronger the more it is refuted.
		In short, Bush is innocent of the "imminent threat" misedemeanour, but was guilty of the "misled the public on overall threat" felony.
		If the word imminent threat wasn't used, that was the predicate; that was the feeling that was given to the American people and to the Congress, whose vote the president clearly was trying to argue or to convince during the course of that State of the Union message.

		This is a case of missing the towering old forest for the imminent saplings.
