Once again, I disagree. We have provided the Iraqi people a "jump start mechanism" to choose without a dictatorship in place. What they choose is upto them. If they make a choice, and the choice evolves over the next generation, we have no business going in and saying "we dont like what you chose"


Sorry to disagree Kumar, but they don't have the choice of re-choosing a Saddam. Not gonna fly. We blew blood and treasure to do away with one tyrant, we aren't going to allow another to take his place, and continue to threaten our security. Post-war Germany didn't have the option of choosing another Hitler, and the same holds for Iraq. This isn't just about them. It's about us, and the whole Middle East, and all our futures.
