How would the world and Iraq be better off if Saddam was still in power? Here are just a few that come to mind:

- 100,000+ Iraqis would be alive;
- $100 billion of infrastructure would still be standing;
- 1300 American men/women would still be alive;
- 17,000 American GIs would not have been dismembered or disfigured for life;
- $200 billion of wasted money in military power could have been used elsewhere like getting Bin Laden and Al-Qaida in Afghanistan, feeding & caring for US homeless, providing health care to all Americans;
- 1800 tons of explosives would not be in the hands of terrorists but still under UN control;
- Iraq would not have turned into a terrorist heaven;
- Americans would not have been the most hated and rogue nation on earth;
- We would still have support from our European alies;
- 1,000,000 Iraqi children would not be dying over the next 10 years by the polution our depleted Uranium left all over Iraq
- Abu-Grahib murder and sadistic torture scandal that made Americans that much more hated would not have happened;
- more than 24,000 separate terrorist acts would not have happened;
- 4,000 year old ancient and highly valuable antiquities from the beginning of human kind would still be in a museum;
- Bin Laden and Al-Qaida in Afghanistan would have been destroyed.
- Iraqi oil would be freely flowing without sabotage
