Will the Muslim world be incited to attack us? This assumes widespread support for Saddam. Huh? Nobody in the region, with the exception of some terrorists, likes him. This is evidenced by most of his neighbors supporting the US position. The nations, who do not, are largely silent. This is because secretly they want Saddam gone. Even the original terrorist himself (Arafat) has rebuffed Saddam. The terrorists, (some of whom he is currently harboring) will try to attack us regardless of what we do in the coming months.

So here you are supporting the view that the terrorists, specifically the Al Qaeda, don't like Saddam. And obviously Saddam doesn't like them.

Ironic you would support the views of those you argue against.

The argument that there will be more terror, IMHO, is real because America and G. Britain have treated the Middle East as colonies for decades. By going to war now we are just reinforcing the arguments of Anti-US extremists.
