Why don't you walk us through the argument.

I thought you were the academic around here John??

You don't know that the Kaiser abdicated after WWI ended, fleeing to the Netherlands to avoid being tried as a war criminal??

He was forced to abdicate, unlike Saddam Hussein... who, it was thought in 1991, would be overthrown internally..

Now, please refresh yourself on the League of Nations and the Treaty of Versailles:

And please note below how the French felt totally justified to invade the Ruhr area of Wiemar Germany when reparations payments were not properly made:

And now recognize that Desert Storm NEVER ended. The cease fire was voided by Saddam's continued intransigence and lies.

The current war is nothing more than a continuation of the war that began 12 years ago and was never properly terminated..

Saddam got off very lightly compared to the Kaiser.. Yet the world had no problem with forcing him to abdicate and placing a democracy in his place.. (remember the Allies were occupying Germany until 1923, so we were officially in charge).
