As of now bringing ?democracy and freedom? cost Iraq 38.000 dead civilians without counting soldiers and fighters. Add to this countless deaths due to lack of first aid, lack of energy, water, hospitals without anything but doctors. By the time the whole thing will finish and it may take as well as long as Saddam was in power or longer you can be assured Mr.Hussein was an angel comparing him to real terrorist bush. I don't see in any footage huge demonstrations in Iraq to bring him to swift justice in any of the Iraq's cities, north or south but I see lots of "Americans - go home with your puppet government you installed in Baghdad" with hundreds of thousands of inhabitants in this land demanding this. Despite draconian sanctions imposed on Iraq after first gulf war which included occasional air raids, Iraq didn't have connections to the terrorist groups, nor had any WMD and it was made clear in the United Nations before war started so the liar was bush who not only killed Iraqis but has on his own account an act of terror (how else we can name unprovoked war?) which counting only American soldiers killed in action more than one third of 9/11. Add to this non combat deaths, close to 100 suicide acts between American soldiers and the number is closer to half who died in Twin Towers. The big difference is that the terrorists who died on 9/11 gave up their life as well, that means in their own minds they were absolutely convinced they were doing right thing and unfortunately nobody can judge later on suicide bomber as he is out of reach for human justice, at least American justice. It is so hard to understand for the public of the US that other nations don't want to accept their values and culture that the only way Americans will learn what other culture mean when is imposed on them by force, it takes the place already not by military force but economic flowing from China. Few more decades and maybe born in the USA suicide bombers will be portrayed in the secrecy of private homes as protectors of American traditions and culture against barbarians from the East.
