Keith,
You are not right by saying that he did not threaten anybody. You needed to
be there just for half a day and you would have seen what I am talking
about. People being killed by his regime <--- not sure how to spell this
one. Over the years thousands of people. That is what I am talking about. So
there have been many other reasons why it is good that he is no longer in
this possition. Let us not just boil everything down to oil or WMD.
KS
Uh-huh. And more than 100,000 Iraqis killed in the doing, with more
Iraqi children starving now than before the Great Liberation (NOT!),
and so on and on and on. That last is quite an achievement,
consdering the half million children killed by the sanctions before
the invasion.
You fancy heroic surgery, do you Klaus? The operation was successful,
though the patient died?
I mean, good grief, you actually believe this has anything to do with
Saddam Hussein being a threat? Eyes opening? Are you kidding? Your
eyes seem to be wide shut.
Why would the US - Washington - bother about some tin-pot dictator
who allegedly murdered his people? They've supported, aided and
abetted dozens and scores of them in the past, who've killed a lot
more people than that.
As I said before in this thread, check out William Blum:

If you're not prepared to do that, and acknowledge it, and THEN
explain how Saddam's domestic misdeeds explain all and show what you
call the big picture, then do not claim that your eyes are open,
because that will show that not only are they shut but that it's
wilful.

Sigh...
I suppose one man's sense is another man's idiocy, and to each his
own and all that, all jolly good and well... But in fact it's a
matter of what you support, what you go along with, what you accept
wihout questioning, what you oppose, to whose benefit and at whose
expense.
Which, I'm afraid, makes this idiocy, not sense. Lethal idiocy,
furthermore, with its hands drenched in blood.
Saddam threatened nobody, certainly not the US.
