Zo Re...You really think he's that dangerous to us? Hitler could've taken over the world. There's no way Saddam is anywhere near that, and never will be. I just can't see it.

The world. Nah. France was easy. And so were the small countries. Germany never came close to Britian, and never could figure out how to live in Russia during the winters. Saddam, if the Israelis hadn't bombed the nuclear plant, could easily do more damage now than Hitler ever thought of in his wildest dreams. Back in 91 Saddam also had amassed enough chemical and biological weapons to kill everyone in the world several times over.

True, but if he's not really given the opportunity... it's still bad that he's in charge... but on the grand scale of bad things, him being in power certainly isn't among the worst.

If it takes 250,000 troops on the border and several thousand inspectors to control him, how much worse can it get. Not to mention the 6000 children dying every month from those controls. 1.5 million people have died according to Saddams own accounts,there are between 2 mil. and 4 mil refugees, and you say that isn't too bad. What pray tell, is your definition of bad. Surely this short war, can't be any worse than leaving Saddam in power.
