Let me ask you a couple of questions:

1. Why do you want Saddam to continue to own and run Iraq?

2. Why are you anti-American? You wouldn't believe how mixed my feelings about this war are, but then I see the anti-Americanism of you and your ilk and I'm driven right into the hardcore corner.

The US isn't responsible for all the world's problems, believe it or not. Not even a significant fraction of them. Yeah, it's done things it shouldn't have, it's been imperialistic at time, it's businesses are greedy (What else is a business supposed to be?), and it's made mistakes. But overall, I'd say it has been a positive force. Germany and Japan are democracies now because of the US. If it weren't for the likes of you, South Vietnam would be too. The Soviets didn't get to invade and dominate all of Europe because of the US. Taiwan is independent and a democracy because of the US. Technologically, the US is the leading nation. We have developed drugs and preventative strategies that have saved billions.

So why are you against the US?
