re:Good.....show me the remaining 900k.

Over a million have been killed during the Iran - Iraq conflicts, which puts another 500,000 in Saddams hands at a minimum. Include a few hundred thousand more for the number of Kuwati's butchered by his invasion and the ones we killed to eject him from Kuwait.

That is not true. It's estimated that less than 500k were killed during the Iraqi Iranian war. Much less than a "few hundred thousand" in the Kuwaiti conflict. Its this flagrant tossing out of numbers which builds the case against Saddam rather than the facts.

<Then of course he kills folks for fun all the time. Did you read the story of how he took over the Presidency? Locked all the members of the government in a room and started calling names (of traitors) and hauling them outside and shooting them on the spot. Only when they began to praise him with wild adulation did he stop, when he had made his message clear to them.

He's still doing it........its rumored he's put his Sec. of Defense under house arrest. You don't have to convince me that he's a ruthless asshole.

Exactly how many people does someone have to kill before he's considered bad enough for the world to remove?

Its not how many he has to kill but how is his ruthlessness worst than of the dictator in Nigeria or Burma or NK or Saudi Arabia or at least another five countries on this planet?
