<<So if you want to make arguments, argue that in his little corner of the world, Saddam is worse than Hitler. But it's a very small corner. >>

This isn't valid. Hitler did not possess weapons of mass destruction.

I do not know if you are right or left Tommaso, but the peacenik leftie protestors have great difficulties coming up with a solution of their own to the Saddam WMD problem. Generally what I hear from the left is the Saddam is not bothering anyone except his own people, and the war is all about oil. The left-wing solution is to simply leave Iraq alone, it seems.

Assume we did just that. Things die down for 4 or 5 years. The West gets complacent. Then one fateful day reminiscent of Sept 11, terrorists set off a simultaneous array of chemical, biological and small-scale nuclear weapons in 10 large American cities. 2 million innocent Americans perish that morning, another 2 million die slowly over the next few weeks.

All weapons designed and manufacured in Iraq.

Iraq as you say is not overunning anyone, but to imply that they are not dangerous is not reasonable.
