Wow, Shemp, you're telling us what we have been telling you for years. There was more freedom under Saddam than under the American regime there. Well done, you finally woke up. Too late for the hundreds of thousands children killed and mutilated, millions of people displaced, and all resemblence of modern civilized society wiped off the face of the map by the invasion. But hey, who cares if Iraq is now an ungovernable zone, free for rapists and women-oppressors to roam, and a breeding zone for American hating fanatics. Saddam may have been an oppressor, but no-one else was able to control that region and America is trillion in debt, while the Iraqi government officials are holding on to an 80 billion surplus until the Americans leave, then they will appropriate it for their own personal use. Good job BushSheep. OffWorld
