So, regime change is the goal. What did we say about regime change in Iraq a few years ago?

<<< To avoid alienating Saddam Hussein, the State Department was careful to balance its criticism of Iraq by also condemning Iran: "The United States finds the present Iranian regime's intransigent refusal to deviate from its avowed objective of eliminating the legitimate government of neighboring Iraq to be inconsistent with the accepted norms of behavior among nations." In later years, the State Department came to adopt Iran's "regime change" policy as its own, presumably revising its definition of "acceptable norms of behavior" in the process. >>>

To summarize, when Saddam has chemical weapons, and uses them against Iran, Iran CANNOT be allowed to oust Saddam. Though Saddam no longer has chemical weapons, and has never used them against the U.S. (even in the case of direct America attack on Iraq), the U.S. MUST oust Saddam at all costs.
