The Iraqi people did not want to be liberated. They simply wanted Saddam gone.

Hmmmm, and the difference is? I guess you're saying the Iraqis wanted ABS.


I don't need to tell you that the ME is a rough neighborhood. With the exception of some academicians, I don't think most Iraqis could give a tinker's damn if Iraq is democratic or not. I think at this point they are more concerned with survival and the potential for financial success.

At this point, I don't care what happens to Iraq.

Did you ever?


Only from a global perspective......why would I have a specific interest in Iraq? After all, its just one of many countries operating under a tyrannical dictator.

Again, if you are going to complain and criticize the invasion of Iraq so much, and call it all a collosal mistake, what was your alternative plan for actions (if any) in Iraq in lieu of the coalition's invasion?

Maintain the status quo and push for weapons inspections. The sanctions were working......there was no need to do anything further.

What would you have done differently than what George did?

Wait for the weapons inspectors to finish their job.
